Comment:

 I'm not sure what the point of this ticket is. xfrout already has
 get_rrset_len(). So all you've done is duplicate the same (non-optimal)
 behavior from the application that actually uses it, down into the base
 data class, without actually calling the new duplicated code.

 If this will ever be used by anything other than xfrout, or if adding
 getWireLength() to every rdata type is measurably more efficient than the
 naive method in xfrout, then this might be worth pursuing. Otherwise, I'd
 be inclined to close it as wontfix.
