There has been suggestion in the past of the desire for a policy

want to set such a policy in real life though.

hmmm, Isn't this "highly exclusive" policy just happens to be the most
powerful protection the DKIM protocol has to offer?

So, you're saying that...

"A says he signs everything"

    ...is "weaker" than....

"A says he signs everything and no-one else is allowed to sign A's mail"

What's the benefit for the signer/originator or the verifier? I just
don't see one.
