It really is critical to get Microsoft (and whoever else) involved in
the conversation, as this is a new protocol that can have different
rules.  It might not be unreasonable to say "You may have used
multiple RCPT commands before, but if you play DKIM2 then you have to
limit it to one per SMTP transaction."

Whether that's what we want to do or not is a decision we need to
make, and getting all the parties into the conversation is a key part
of making that decision.
