Matching the From to the DKIM signing will only be useful to define
whose domain in the From field does not match the signing domain, there
may be a lot of interesting information to be gleaned from that. Using
that info to drive internal policy may interest some folks and does not
apply to others.

1.  You did not answer my question.

2.  Calling folks "foolish" isn't very productive, particularly when
your 
views have repeatedly received countering arguments that you seem to be 
ignoring.
