It has the side effect of tying A-R more closely to DKIM, which can be
considered a good or bad thing.


Good point.

Folks should be explicit about making and documenting this choice:

      Is the information being provided about DKIM or about a validated domain 
name?

These are not the same.  The latter is generic and flexible.  The former is, 
well... tied to a specific mechanism.

As spiffy as that mechanism is, it is generally a good idea to avoid linkages 
that aren't necessary.
