There has been talk of applying DKIM to technologies like Usenet and
HTTP
output.  Packing DKIM with mail-specific verification requirements
could
prevent such things from happening.  Shall we also add a "but only
when
used in the email context" clause?



Seeing as the M in DKIM stands for Mail, we don't have to put a "but
only when used in the email context" clause. If a DKIM like approach is
used for other protocols then we might reasonably text specific to those
protocols - DKIH (Domain Keys Identified HTML as an example).
