That'd would be nice.

I write multi-distro "Linux" documentation I'm painfully aware of
unneeded and trivial differences between distributions.

The "other" big distro does stick bind in /var/lib/named.

I'm not faulting Red Hat for /var/named/ though, as it does have 10+
years of momentum behind it and when it was chosen most likely there was
no standard location defined.
