Yes, this makes sense as well. If you are not in the forest root you
first need a cross-realm TGT for your domain and the forest root. Then
you need a cross-realm TGT for the forest root and the IPA domain.

As a next step you should see a request to the IPA KDC to get the actual
service ticket for the host in the IPA domain.
