WHMCS has a fixed set of DNS record types, which is not supported at all registrars. Currently, our resellers have to modify their clientareadomainsdns.tpl with the supported types, which is not maintenance friendly.

Hereby, I request that you add an additional method callback that returns the supported DNS record types. e.g.:

registrar_getSupportedDnsRecordTypes( $params )
{
return ['A', 'AAAA', ...];
}

This is a well-reasoned and highly practical request for the WHMCS developer ecosystem. Currently, the "one-size-fits-all" approach to DNS record types in the clientareadomainsdns.tpl file creates a significant maintenance burden for developers and a poor user experience for customers who might attempt to save unsupported records. https://www.pike-pass.com

"our resellers have to modify their clientareadomainsdns.tpl"
All resellers have to do that, I can't understand how WHMCS was programmed with a static set of DNS records.
