No, that would be a mistake. Let's just not use the word "third-party".

In hindsight, we should have simply:

       "Signer Policies|Practices"

which would be a base/raw framework for a single DNS lookup allowing 
extensions to to be written for it. Piggy packing off the same DNS 
lookup,  we won't multiple DNS lookups for new POLICY ideas.

In an away that is what happening to ADSP.  AFAIK, there are two 
extensions I-D written already for ADSP for it and a third one coming. 
  Two of them will be related to third party authorized signature 
practices.

I guess the term ADSP is fine as long it allows for Author Domains to 
describe a signing practice that is not exclusive (1st party only).
