|1.2 Signing Identity
|
| DKIM separates the question of the identity of the signer of the
| message from the purported author of the message. In particular, a
| signature includes the identity of the signer. Verifiers can use the
| signing information to decide how they want to process the message.
|
| INFORMATIVE RATIONALE: The signing address associated with a DKIM
| signature is not required to match a particular header field
| because of the broad methods of interpretation by recipient mail
| systems, including MUAs.

This statement seems in conflict with this statement:
,---
| 5.1 Determine if the Email Should be Signed and by Whom
|...
| A signer MUST NOT sign an email if it is unwilling to be held
| responsible for the message; in particular, the signer SHOULD ensure
| that the submitter has a bona fide relationship with the signer and
| that the submitter has tthe right to use the address being claimed.

Change to:
| A signer MUST NOT sign an email if it is unwilling to be held
| responsible for the message; in particular, the signer SHOULD ensure
| that the submitter has a bona fide relationship with the signer and
| that the submitter has the right to use the address when a specific
| address is noted in the i= parameter.
