A few thoughts to fuel the discussion:

2) One possible recommendation to list managers is that if a message  
to
the list is DKIM signed AND has an ADSP discardable policy AND the
signature cannot be maintained intact then the list should bounce the
message.

Given that ADSP discardable is used to mark domains which send only  
email that the sender considers should never risk being modifed in any  
way - they only want it sent from their smarthost to the MX of the  
original reciient, with no forwarding or store and forward or  
rewriting, effectively - perhaps something more aggressive by mailing  
list managers is needed.

If a mailing list were to simply reject all submissions from senders  
who are publishing ADSP discardable that would ensure that their  
wishes were not violated. And it seems to comply with the spirit of  
ADSP discardable more than the riskier suggestions.
