Description

The Advanced button doesn't allow the inclusion of local-data: entries. Actually it allows it, but it breaks unbound
apparently local-data: needs to be directly below local-zone:

The DNS Forwarder does allow this, by adding srv-host= entries.

Please add another Text box to Host Overrides, or some other means to allow the addition of SRV/TXT/etc records, that aren't
A/PTR records, as handled by the current Host Overrides section.

Specifically, I (and I imagine others) need the capability of adding:

local-data: "_myService._tcp.mydomain.com. IN SRV 3600 10 0 1234 myhost.mydomain.com."

I've worked (ugly hack) around the issue temporarily by using the cron package and running the following hourly:
/usr/local/sbin/unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf local_data _myService._tcp.mydomain.com. IN SRV 3600 10 0 1234 myhost.mydomain.com.
