Well, first of all, it's been a year since I've run any big-ass name

short answer: no 

long answer: This has been the subject of various DNS working groups
for some time, along with partial zone transfers.  Go to www.isc.org
and start digging through the BIND documentation.  You'll find it
educational, and you might learn that it's been integrated into the
latest BIND.  I'm just not sure.
