I can't get myself to agree with you on that, but I understand the problem.
If you actually have customers in Australia, TTL will take care of that for you. If you only have a few customers it cannot possibly be that important to have slightly lower latency for your domain at the first query.
(FYI we are a medium size dns hosting company)

Sure thing, but you probably mean the closest DNS box network wise/AS-hop/latency, not by country.

They shouldn't.

Large LIRs probably have a decent network and can do what they want within their own network. Do you disagree that they should have that advantage?
