The current DKIM spec does not answer these questions and easily permits
protecting very little of the message.  Almost certainly too little to
ensure the protection you assert.

One can also point a gun at ones own head.  That doesn't make a gun a suicide
device of no value for anything else.  The spec does permit people to do silly
things, but so what.

Doesn't this statement advocate for informative advice rather than normative 
requirements?
