The named.conf file has to have an entry for each zone that it is either
master or slave for. (terms primary and secondary are depreciated).
So, in the case of a named instance acting as a slave, the zone entry must
be made.
You could probably write a 'cgi script' (password protected) that may 
be accessed by the owner of the master server, allowing him to change
the named.conf file and reload named.
