IBTD.  Those IETFers tend to hit me with RfC 1958, among other
things you find KISS in this FYI, "end-to-end security", and
the author is the current IETF Chair.

So far I don't see why we don't discuss op=smime instead of
say DKIM, meta, eh=, or op=pra.

I'm all for op=smime and op=pgp too.  One thing at a time.   Those are more
complex, I think, becuase they don't have their own DNS based policy
mechanism for people to go to and so we'd have to capture all the options
here and not just indicate some useage of the technology.
