Haven't seen that before; indeed it is similar. I quite like that.

The limitation I see is, how do you store data values with spaces in them? If it allows quoted values, then how do you store values with quotes in them? And how do you store line feeds? Not having those rules out a lot of use cases.

hmm, I can't remember about spaces and you would need them for txt records. I cand find anything in the documentation, i'd have to do some tests
