Yes but I think the rfc1537 refers, and the recommendation always was "loca=
lhost." hostname, which refers to name "localhost", not "localhost.domain".=
 Then I guess, this was already wrong in the O'Reilly "DNS and BIND" book (=
have to check that), which I remember using as a guideline to set up our fi=
rst domains/zones.  And from that, the setting was copied later on to all n=
ew domains too.

Yes, it used to be recommended -
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1537#section-10

But not any more, because -
https://seclists.org/bugtraq/2008/Jan/270

I also only found out about this recently(ish) - https://www.dns.cam.ac.uk/=
