Isn't that what the RFC 6762 recommends?

https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc6762.txt

 Any DNS query for a name ending with ".local." MUST be sent to the
   mDNS IPv4 link-local multicast address 224.0.0.251 (or its IPv6
   equivalent FF02::FB).  


Hoping not to misunderstand something and that it helps,
