Yes, one remote is meant to be a single running DNS server. It can have
multiple addresses. When it gets notified via one of those addresses,
there is no point in contacting the other addresses belonging to the
same "remote". On the other hand, multiple remotes (= DNS servers) can
be configured for notify, if the primary has more secondaries. There is
no semantics for organizations and owners and such. You can perhaps add
comments (#) to your configuration file.

Just to clarify some semantics of the config format.
Is each individual 'remote' ID considered to be a single server,
regardless of the number of addresses it has?
For the notify case, it looks like knot will send to each address in a
remote ID in serial, and stop as soon as one replies. That suggests
the above semantics, but I wanted to make sure I'm interpreting this
behaviour correctly before I complicate my config by adding a lot more
remotes. I am currently treating each remote as an organisation,
lumping all of that organisation's servers together under a single ID.
