DMARC defines DMARC-related 'policies' which are an overlay on DKIM, which to 
me could be also aptly phrased as "DMARC creates a policy framework for DKIM", 
and more succintly "DMARC is a DKIM Policy Framework".

Yes, DMARC does not change DKIM de-iure. But also, yes, DMARC does bring POLICY 
to DKIM.

The truth here is that DMARC is going to be a de-facto DKIM 2.0. And when I say 
"de-facto", I mean in production systems, on the trenches, in the muddy world 
of reality where support costs do exist and ivory towers are far in the 
distance and rest high away from all the mudd.
