Sure, you do. However, the intersection between the set of protocols
my internal clients speak with each other and the set of protocols
allowed to leave the network by the firewall equals to SSH only. And
I have SSH configured with StrictHostKeyChecking, so I see no
danger.

Yeah sure, I see you point. I just oppose to the overgeneralised
claim that RFC 1918 in external DNS == Bad. It's a bad idea unless
you know what you are doing. And I claim the latter.
