a trick: if _domainkeys.example.com exists (returns anything but
NXDOMAIN), we may assume that at least DKIM records exist.

I just have no idea how to test this in SA (at least not within rule).

I think that's a great idea, and we could add

DKIM_MISSING    Domain has DKIM records but message has no DKIM signature

with maybe +3 to start, as a sort-of-soft-impliced-DMARC.

That is a terrible idea. There are perfectly good reasons for a domain to only sign some mail. Justifying a +3 score on something which is only wrong *IN YOUR HEAD* is hard.

ADSP and DMARC both exist apart from DKIM. It is an entirely valid choice to NOT use them.

(surely this is doable in a plugin; it's not conceptually hard)

Feel free to implement it on your own and report back the results.
