John, I think one of us must be missing something.  Why would the 
flag always be set the same?  The problem only occurs when you are 
using g= in the key, and there might be good reason why you would not 
want to limit the signature to the d= domain in this case, e.g., 
role-based names such as perhaps "postmaster".
