Samba 4.5.0 added 'net ads dns unregister' command to unregister DNS entries. This would be very useful for us in our environment.

The patch is pretty straight forward. I was able to backport it to the RHEL6.8 Samba 3 very easily and it is working there. No point in requesting it for RHEL 6 at this point, so we are only requesting this for RHEL7.
We plan to migrate to RHEL7 at the beginning of CY2017 and this would be helpful. We will also me migrating all workstations and servers to a new AD domain. Having this features simplifies the migration process for us significantly.
