The DKIM WG charter includes LIST operations support.

  5. Consider issues related to mailing lists, beyond what is
   already documented. This includes considerations for mailing
   list software that supports or intends to support DKIM, as well
   as considerations for DKIM/ADSP deployment in the presence of
   mailing lists that do not have such support. Include
   recommendations in the informational documents, or produce a
   new informational document about mailing-list considerations.

Therefore your MLM would be very appropriate.

Mr. Crocker says this is a distracting from "our current work."  Mr. 
Crocker  should be reminded what is out of scope per the charter:

   * Reputation and accreditation systems. While we expect these to
   add value to what is defined by the DKIM working group, their
   development will be separate, and is out of scope for the DKIM
   working group.

The on-going changes in the DKIM draft standard documentations and 
specification semantics all related to reputation has been a major 
distraction, hindrance and road block in completed chartered goals.
