Well, in C the arrays for both namespaces and transport_list that are passed to the set functions are arrays of enums so a getdns_list feels heavyweight for something that simple….  The alternative is a list of ints of the enum value…. or bindata of the string. The enum option is more type specific, at least in the C API… probably not so true for bindings….?
