Having an DNS records at your NS delegation point is fraught with
technicalities. For example, you can't (easily) put a CNAME there. If
you put an A record there then you have to be able to accept inbound
mail at that machine even if it's supposed to be your "web" server. MX
isn't the only way of controlling mail: it's a relatively "new" thing
as
far as mail is concerned and it's still allowed to deliver mail to host
specified by and A record.
It's possible to make it work but it's difficult to get exactly right
and some purists believe it to be a point of policy to disallow it.

:-) Plus.net who in the past didn't seem that
eager to get involved
were making some big efforts to get people connected.
"dig plus.net aaaa
+short" is not returning anything :-(
