A system is not misconfigured that asserts all messages are initially
signed and that non-compliant services are also used. In this case, one
should expect a signature may be damaged or not added by such services.
Sending a message to virtually any mailing list such as this one will
cause messages to be lost when following your advice.  In the case of a
mailing list, the change may not be minor, but at the same time, it is
not nefarious either.

Why would you want to send a signed message to a mailing list server that is
a) not DKIM-SSP compliant and b) known to alter the integrity of the
message?

What good as you expecting from this?

All this does is promote the "Cry Wolf" syndrome, harming your own domain
while also putting others at risk of receiving more DKIM junk disguised as
your domain.
