A DKIM base compatible option?

When subdomains or other domains are used to sign the message, a significant utility is lost. This utility allows the 2822.From address to be assured on a per message basis independent of a policy assertion. To overcome this limitation, adopting the r= parameter could replace the lost ability for asserting the 2822.From is valid or invalid on a per message basis. When r=1, the signing domain asserts the 2822.From address has been validated. An r=-1 assertion indicates the 2822.From should not be assumed validated. The value of r=0 or not appearing in the signature then defers the 2822.From validity assertions to the 2822.From policy.
