Hopefully that makes sense, i'm basically asking on behalf of our CTO and just mentioned your question... The answer to which is yes, trying to not use cached lookups.... Trying to pick through the proposals and determine what it is they (ultradns and Savvis ITM features are relying on)...
So what you want to do is for _every_ lookup not already in your cache you'd want to do separate non-recursive lookups at each nameserver (try the "dig +trace example.com" command to see what I mean) instead of one recursive lookup?
Sure if you can find or write a resolver that'll ask the nameservers the right questions; it's got nothing to do with the DNS servers; they just supply (or fail to supply) the record they're asked for.
You can ask the question on bind-users but be prepared to be flamed.
