So, after this, the master configuration files will no longer live
in /etc but in /var/named/chroot/etc?  Will the /etc/ files be removed?
What will prevent the frustrated admin from editing the wrong file?

As part of my efforts on Samba4, I've been trying to make it easier for
administrators to include the pre-generated zone file, and the rules for
GSS-TSIG updates (required by windows clients).  I hope this will not
make it harder to have fairly generic instructions (insert this snippit
into /etc/named.conf) for my users.
