No, this doesn't change the semantics of DKIM-BASE.  The DKIM-Base

The document already covers this case. It assumes that anyone doing so
must be a bad actor. Says nothing about good players doing it on
purpose :-)


Yes, sorta....

If I have a valid public key for which there is no private key, it's  
not malformed. As a matter of fact, you can't tell that I burned the  
private key.

It's perfectly well-formed, it's just incapable of executing  
successfully.
