    Any thoughts about this suggestion?

I personally likes things to be more straigtforward and less dynamic.

Here is a scenario: This pick the one you found might be a new way
create problems, Suppose you have two back-ends available on the
machine. One is used for production, the other for testing. One of
the two is off-line for some reason. Someone updates the testing
version of opendnssec, which one should it use? Whatever it fines
or just the test version?

Just a thought.
