You can do any of the ones you stated. Yes, zone transfers, if you allow
them, are possible between AD integrated zones. Keep in mind, AD integrated
zones are zones weith the zone data stored in the AD database and not a text
file. They still act like primary zones.
I myself like to use conditional forwarding in this scenario, especially if
there is some question of trust, etc, but you can use whatever you like to
make this work depending on your requirements. Others will say they like
strawberry, chocolate or vanilla, depending on their needs or requirements.
