Want to bring this up and see what they say? From my experience with
ampr.org, BIND will handle 50,000 entries on what is now a modest system.
Perhaps they are waiting for enough users to make more engineering necessary.

Can you solve the problem of keeping the envelope-from of your SMTP server

It sounds to me as if some other system might get my mail bounces.
