Indeed, I wasn't attempting to rehash an old argument specifically  
about DKIM.

I rather thought that the general difficulties (perceived, actual, or  
otherwise) might be worth enumerating in a more general forum so that  
they are better-known. I doubt DKIM is the last work which will  
feature new types of data being stored in the DNS.
