Harden Glue - yes, that definitely should be enabled. Otherwise, OpenDNS does not support DNSSEC at all, so all those other DNSSEC-related hardening features are kinda useless till you switch back to Google, or just disable the forwarding altogether.

Ok so I've turned Hardened Glue on, what else should I enable?
-
@cmb:
Have you tried checking:
Harden Glue
Harden DNSSEC data
These two in particular, if you don't have them enabled, enable them. I changed things to enable both those by default, and we'll add config upgrade code to turn those on for anyone who doesn't have them enabled upon upgrade to 2.2.1.

Okay I've enabled both of those. They will work okay with OpenDNS? - Thanks :)

I read that but I just wanted to confirm because I wasn't sure if you mistyped what you said due to the way it was worded.

Just to be clear, with harden glue I see no issue, but I'm not sure that opendns supports DNSSEC, so if forwarding from opendns with DNSSEC enabled, might get "nothing".
I'm not running opendns here, but seems like it didn't support DNSSEC in the past. Not sure about now.
(For me at least, trying to use DNSSEC with non-DNSSEC capable servers results in DNS failure to resolve)
-
Obviously, as already stated multiple times here, hardening features that make use of DNSSEC will do absolutely nothing useful when you are forwarding DNS queries to OpenDNS or any other open DNS server that does not support DNSSEC at all. If you want DNSSEC, stop using OpenDNS.

Final followup here for me (I hope): Unbound 1.5.2rc1 has just been released, http://www.unbound.net/pipermail/unbound-users/2015-February/003774.html
Interesting part of the release notes in our case:
This release fixes a DNSSEC validation issue when an upstream server
with different trust anchors introduces unsigned records in messages.
Harden-glue when turned off allows potentially poisonous records in
the cache in the hopes of that enabling DNS resolution for 'impossible
to resolve' domains, it is fixed to have 'less cache poisoning',
quotes added because it is by definition not secure to turn off
harden-glue. New features are that "inform" can be used to see which
IPs lookup a domain, and unbound-control can use named unix pipes.According to Chris in Redmine, this should be fixed in 2.2.1.
