When all is said and done, it's the combination of the "selector +
_domainkey + SDID" that must be a valid domain name whose TXT records
can be accessed using DNS. This is the *only* name out of all of these
that MUST be in the DNS.

Has any reader of this spec actually been confused? I sure
haven't seen it, and the advent of zillions of web resources in case
there were any question at all makes this seem like a rather academic
debate.
