It is SSP's way of offering input for use with the receive-side's decision making tree. Receivers can decide whether and how much import to place on such offered input (if any at all). We must resist the tendency to think that doing so is unprecedented (it's not) or somehow out-of-bounds (it isn't).

Agreed.

Message filtering is likely how DKIM will be initially used.

It is what the layman is going to understand.
