That's not quite what we had in mind. As I see it, 3rd party signing is
only acceptable when the domain owner wants to permit it -- so if
there's no agreement, the entire discussion of 3rd party signing is
irrelevant. This is more or less your argument, too, so we probably
just need to tighten the wording of that paragraph so that it's clear
that it means what we both want it to mean.
I'm not cool with replacing an "out of scope" statement at the tail end
of an appendix with normative demands of specific verifier behavior,
however.
