[ietf-dkim] Proposal: Removal of AUID (i= tag/value)

OK.  So the capability exists, but people choose not to use it.  Some people in 
fact choose to disable this capability; note that a) ADSP is an add-on, not the 
DKIM core, and b) the actual uptake of ADSP on the receive side is not known to 
be large.

So the suggestion is to add a second capability that performs the same function 
as the first, on the theory that, this time, folks will use it for that purpose?

The logic sequence has some problems, but I don't believe it's reflection of the 
current situation is one of them.
