Sorry, I wasn't entirely clear; for this case a certification signature would
be nonsensical. But a direct key signature would. Perhaps:

certification signature or a signature directly on the key. An implementation
MUST allow importing a key accompanied either by a certification signature or
a signature on itself. It MAY accept public keys without an
accompanying signature.

And then a must accept for encryption-only primary keys sans signature.

Okay, I think I get the gist of this and I'll incorporate it into my
draft, which I plan to submit (hopefully) tomorrow.  Please read the
draft once it's posted and make sure I got it right?

Thanks for your feedback.
