Not really convenient.

It would mean a domain name for each class of emails (eg corporate  
email, newsletter to customers)

I'm not sure why using the selector would be a bad idea, if a key  
gets revoked the reputation falls to zero, and when a receiver sees  
a new key then it may assume no reputation and will build a new one  
based on traffic. I think this does no hinder key management.

If changing a selector will damage delivery rates (by trashing the  
reputation of the sender) then ESPs will never change selectors, and  
hence keys. You don't get much more of a hindrance to key management  
than that.
