Exactly.  The signing domain marking a message as trustworthy is
assuring the recipient the message is not deceptive in _some_ fashion.
This assurance would not be based upon some script or email-address, but
upon who is allowed to receive their endorsement.  Violate the trust,
lose the endorsement.  Let it happen too often, the signing domain will
also lose their trustworthy status.
**************
DKIM does not sign the message as "trustworthy" DKIM just indicates "I sent this" 
thanks,
