I don't think that it was ever meant to be MIME compatible.

Many MTAs still add a Domainkey-Signature.  They could stop that, and
add a legacy DKIM-Signature along with a one that features the newer
canonicalization instead.  Setting the pace in this manner can keep
DKIM development alive indefinitely.

The MTAs that are still adding a Domainkey-Signature will keep doing 
that irrespective of what goes on in this working group.  I prefer 
not to keep DKIM development alive indefinitely if the sole purpose 
is not to produce results.
