Whereas we have discussed this in the past and we agreed to comply with the spec for internal dns resolution (https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/neutron-specs/specs/liberty/internal-dns-resolution.html) as recorded here http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/neutron_l3/2019/neutron_l3.2019-05-29-14.00.log.html#l-42, I think more use cases have surfaced recently that warrant a reevaluation of this decision and of the original spec. Just last week, I was talking to hjensas in the Neutron channel, and he was describing a very similar need (if not the same): "in our case we have multiple ports for each instance, and instead of $server-name.$netname.example.com. they all get £server-name.example.com. now. Which is confusing. Since $netname.example.com. is in the dns_domain of the network ..." (http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/%23openstack-neutron/%23openstack-neutron.2020-04-17.log.html#t2020-04-17T14:54:11).

I think it is time to explore a way to satisfy these new use cases while providing backwards compatibility with the original spec mentioned above.
