Why? I've done exactly that type of setup before, and it
worked just fine. Use the network address as the subdomain
under which all entries eventually appear. I believe the
O'Reily book even gives exactly such an example of delegating
a subnet smaller than a /24.
Granted, a naming convention that makes it a little more obvious
as to what's going on, like "8/28.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa", has
some appeal, but I don't think it's strictly necessary.
