It was always a bad idea to strip signatures, and continues to be. The text of DKIM couldn't be more clear that a broken signature is equivalent to no signature and broken signatures have always had forensic value.

Unfortunately in reality broken signatures are sometimes treated worse than no signature at all.

Though I don't want to start a discussion on if it should be done or what the results are or what the results should be. I was just stating that it is being done and the decision between new headers or a new version will (or will not) affect how some implementations behave, for better or for worse.

If they ignore the plain and clear text of STD 76, what makes you think they will honor it in a new protocol?
