probably not.

it's an anti-abuse issue, where there is quite a bit of sloppiness and 
confusion about all of the relevant technologies.

but the problem and the issue is the broad need for much better clarity 
and precision than to assign a particular misunderstanding to that 
particular technology.  (People generally believe DKIM certifies the 
source of a message and even its authorship.)
