NACK

The --no-reverse options means "do not create new reverse zone if there 
is no existing suitable reverse zone". Your patch changes the semantics 
of the option to "do not use any reverse zone".

One problem I see is that the name of the option is misleading. It 
should probably be changed to "--no-new-reverse".

Anyway, the ticket should IMO be closed as invalid. It is a case of 
people not reading documentation and then being surprised why things 
don't work the way they assumed.
