I see some administrators succesfully using DNAMEs to retarget
the entire "_tcp" subtree of a set of hosts to a common location.

Something along the lines of:

    _tcp.mail1.example.com. IN DNAME _dane.example.com.
    _tcp.mail2.example.com. IN DNAME _dane.example.com.
    _tcp.mail3.example.com. IN DNAME _dane.example.com.
    *._dane.example.com IN TLSA 2 1 1 ...

This works fine.
