Well, port 443 to some.thing.example may go to a different machine
than port 1965, thanks to the various "routers" we have now, so there
is no reason they will share the same fate.

I suggest to get inspiration from the DANE protocol and to prefix the
name with the port:

_443._tcp.some.thing.example IN TXT "The Web server works"

_1965._tcp.some.thing.example IN TXT "The Gemini server will be back at 21:00 UTC"
