ntpq vs new DNS

For server slots specified by name, the new DNS returns both the local IP
Address and the hostname. Servers specified by numerical address don't
return a hostname.
The current ntpq gives preference to the hostname slot. That works for pool
slots where the address is useless. It's much more complicated for things
like
server 0.us.pool.ntp.org
I think changing a few lines will revert to the previous behavior.
Does anybody have any great ideas for how to take advantage of this extra
info?
