DKIM-Canonicalized-Body is not required, but that is not the same as
saying that the first part of it suffices.  For example, if l=0 or the
body is empty, the spec says it should be canonicalized to a CRLF.

Sure, but "negative" ought to be defined, and it should be comparable
with the ro= values defined by the relevant per-method specs (which
may change between report generation and reception.)

With multiple reports, can the Auth-Failure field help determining why
a report was generated?  It is important for people who need to fine
tune their ro=.
