The DNS specs refer to the QDCOUNT, ANCOUNT, NSCOUNT and ARCOUNT fields
in the DNS header.  I've always assumed ANCOUNT = ANswer COUNT, NSCOUNT
= Name Server(s) COUNT, ARCOUNT = Additional Record(s) COUNT and QDCOUNT
= Query COUNT, but what does the 'D' stand for, if anything?  Data?
Domain(s)?

That's an interesting question. I can't believe I never thought to ask
it myself. I am apparently weirdly accepting of "QD" being a
reasonable shorthand for "question".

I take it Paul is not on this list -- have you tried asking him
directly? He would surely remember.

I always think of it as Query Domain Count, because the query section has no RDATA's in it unlike the other sections, each query has just a Name, Class, and Type.

Did a little Binging about and discovered that the question has been 
asked, but not answered in a satisfying* way.

Makes you wonder if there is an insider'a cruel joke involved.

This was BOTL, in my opinion:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32031349/what-does-qd-stand-for-in-dns-rfc1035

*a "satisfying answer" is different (or might be) from a "satisfactory 
answer".

In what context would you want to use a photo of said Locker ?

I have been asked to identify the people in this picture. It was taken many
years ago at ISI. This bunch  is just scruffy enough to be Internet folks.
Are you, or any of your friends, in this picture??

(For the record, I think I recognize a couple of people here. I suspect this
was pre-1984.)
