One potential conflict is an MSA following "MAY add Sender", and a
DKIM signature explicitly confirming the absence of a Sender header
field.  Several things are odd in this scenario, but it is clearly
not the wish to add a Sender.  In other words, 4409bis is not a
good place to discuss this oddity, and it would be very wrong if
an MSA stops to add a Sender only because it breaks a "no Sender"
signature.  Let's remove the note, it is not helpful.  If there is
a problem in this scenario it is elsewhere, not in 4409bis, and not
in DKIM.
