I'm inclined to leave well enough alone.  That wouldn't have been an 
unreasonable interpretation six years ago when DKIM was new, but this is 
the first time someone's suggested that t=y mean something operational 
rather than just encouraging better logging and diagnostics.  (I discount 
the "don't penalize us for bad signatures" theory since as you note people 
aren't supposed to do that even without t=y.)

Its not the first time John.  No Tolerance for continued failure with 
a t=y has long been advocated hence the current text for opening the 
door for tracking.  The threads and discussions are long and deep on 
this matter.

It was actually pulled from SSP.
