Custom per-user DNS entries?

Good morning,

Some of our users have sites that have custom records for like Google Ads (like TXT-records for google-site-verification or other A-records pointing to their other servers if they have them).

Is there a way to set per-user DNS-entries that are inserted along with the system-wide entries when pressing 'Reset Defaults' in the 'DNS Administration' page?

Thanks,
Rogier
 
What is 'system-wide entries' and the 'Reset Defaults' button in DNS Administration page?

System-wide entries are for example:

A 3600 example.com 1.2.3.4
A 3600 mail 1.2.3.4
CNAME 3600 www @
MX 3600 mail

Per-user entries would be a specific Google Authentication TXT-record like:
TXT 3600 "google-site-verification=pU8wYhVSaUCO0dBIQ1T7nTmvi2MZUPF5PI"

I would like to be able to change, say, our mail server to another IP-address and reset all zones but keeping the user-specific entries.
Also, some users would sometimes fiddle with their zone files, making them break. So I would like to be able to reset them to the default, again retaining their specific records. Some users are on different nameservers than others. So to prevent me from having to lookup the nameservers and specific records that go with their domain, I'd like an option that will reset the zone to the default with the records that are always there, plus their own custom records.
