Is it possible to rebase this to master? I looked at it briefly and 
there is going to be an import loop if you try adding this to 
ipapython/ipautil. I'm not sure if the best solution is to move some 
things from ipalib/util into ipapython/ipautil or not, but it is 
certainly the simplest.

I think the approach is right, the code has just shifted significantly 
since 2.2 (new DNS resolver).

thanks
