John,

Because the lack of one has created other conflicts and 
mis-interpretations.

Cited another way:

1) dkim=all

    is being read as a 3rd party signing allowance when as you say,
    offers no 3rd party signing policy.

2) It has created design pressure to create I-D proposals
    to hack the 5322.From or add new Headers to circumvent #1

3) As you often state, in the spirit of what counts most in the
    IETF, "Running Code" and open source DKIM API (which mean
    other MTA must be using it) naturally follows #1

4) Resigners (New and Legacy) are not listening to ADSP,
    so #1 doesn't apply, thus forcing #2 and #3.

Just providing input to help codify the engineering.

Thanks
