Since configurations are dynamically loaded, they can be changed on the fly, without needing any admin intervention. Change the mysql data, and a query to the nameserver is instantly updated. Nevertheless, there can still be some latency due to the cache of other nameservers than yours, so it may be good to have a low expire value in the ressource records of your dynamic hosts.

I didn't test the script yet, it seems to be a nice one by the way.
