[UPDATE] The final 1803 release of RSAT is now on the public RSAT download page. Look for the WS_1803 package there, thanks!

Here's the official KB workaround published by the DNS team:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4055558/rsat-missing-dns-server-tool-in-windows-10-version-1709 (thanks Christoff MOrlOck for posting this previously)

The RSAT download page now also has this info under Additional Information:

Issue: DNS Tools missing
Impact: WS_1709 RSAT package users
Resolution: Use the WS2016 RSAT package or apply this workaround

The DNS team has also fixed the root cause for RS4 and so the workaround will not be required for the upcoming RS4 RSAT package update.

Installed Build 17063.rs_prerelease.171213-1610. Although I had to go through it twice, it worked the second time around and my tiles showed up on my Start menu without having to move them or pinning them to the Start menu again.

The new build is soooo much better than 17046. For those of you on the Fast Ring for Insider Preview, Build 17046 was available 12/19/2017.
