All of these, however,
are beyond the scope of this document, if not the whole (proposed) 
DKIM working group.

I disagree, because they go to the question of whether its a 
useful technique.

This issue is really key for anyone who is a security specialist. We
tend to believe that security is a property of _systems_ rather than
components.

The New Security Architecture is in large part a reaction against the
traditional reductionist approach that has dominated the academic field.

It will be much easier to bring the rest of the security area along with
us if we are not proposing to entirely ditch everything they have worked
on for the past decade and a half.
