Service discovery is the use case I have in mind, it seems there is increasing alignment in using variants on these that could enable the browser to integrate with the local network in rather powerful and interesting ways. If there are use cases for more broader use of DNS I'm certainly not against it, but my initial instinct is to avoid building a complete API for it if only a subset is ever likely to be useful.
