 This narrowly defined notion of "appropriate" DNS usage is akin to ...
 What such naysayers don't want to accept is the fact that ...
 I might add that experience suggests that the DNS infrastructure is amazingly

It strikes as inherently required that a new use be evaluated for operational 
impact.  If the use does not look exactly like existing practise, it well might 
create problems.

"first do no harm".

So it seems a Very Good Thing to have these questions get raised.

Which is why the really important part of this topic is the set of detailed 
answers you provided, which show how DKIM compares with existing practises that 
are known to be acceptable.
