You have not answered John Mears' question. ||z can now be found as a "recipe" under the r= and r.fieldname= tags So i have read a bit of your draft -05, and stopped when stumbled over the indeed mostly-inclusive approach of header fields. For one i think that the "ignore 'X-'" stuff would possibly benefit from a reference to RFC 6648, which is from 2012, as the IETF at that time deprecated exactly those headers via "Best Current Practice", and it seems problematic when within the thousands of documents one has to read there are de-facto counteracting proposals and methods, and silently so. And i think that in hindsight to John Mears' problem the idea of being "practically all inclusive" when creating header checksums is asking for problems in real life. Doing it that way means that any mess stored in headers is part of the signature of a domain, inclusive random headers created by users. Wouldn't this mean that any hard cut of such headers will end up requiring "T"rust to survive? Given that collected RFC 5863 "organizational trust" can be nothing but a volatile thing, any user could, and if by accident, when playing around, out of boredom or juvenile horniness, like creating a header with a base64ified image, for example porn (ok, there is Wikipedia with lots of images, and all that, but..), that is caught and hard cut by a spam checker, declassify the reputation of the entire domain? I think it is blue eyed aka improvidence aka a problem to cause such trouble for domain keys, for both the domain, and the user. (For example i have a Schopenhauer citation in my headers which translates to something dreadful, and i seem to realize that in certain US states you are in trouble with the police if you spit out a -- yuck -- chewing gum, maybe rightely so, but/and if i bring all that together, i would fear future trouble if i would be you. Or at least for the users of another IETF email thing.) Anyhow, not and never for ACDC that way. Not expecting an answer, but maybe the above is worth considering.
