Hmmn.  Yesterday someone seemed to agree that keeping the same header name 
would make life easier for all the code that looks for a DKIM-Signature header 
to decide whether to call the DKIM library, since in any sensible scenario the 
old and new DKIM headers are handled by one library with a single verification 
interface.  Has he changed his mind?

R's,
John
