I'm embarrassed to raise such a trivial issue, but couldn't it be done
the other way around? That is, keep the name DKIM for the core spec
and invent some other name for its application to RFC 5322. This way

Interesting possibility. If the split goes as planned, then the signature
for the FOOBAR protocol will be "FOOBAR-Signature", although its internal
structure and many/most of its tags will be the same. I can see advantages
in either method.
