Well, it is more complicated than that. Many people do think that NAT boxes are layer 3 devices, and if you have a double-nat mechanism then "messing around with DNS packets" is a needed feature. Sure, then one start walking from layer 3 towards layer 9.... But... Anyway, this is not when we should fight about wording.
