Each protocol has to have a defined mechanism for how to locate its
service. You can't just stop or start using SRV on your own, so having
this switch under user control is rather meaningless. I think that an
AI_SRV flag is fine (and then it should only return SRV records). Next
step is to amend rfc2553 with it.
