Yes, the main purpose of having a separate signing service is to
decouple LDAP access to private keys from the main amavisd daemon.
I'd hate to see these keys accessible to a process running under
UID of amavis or having a LDAP password/credentials in an
amavisd config file. Making this possible involved cooperation
from Jason Long, the author or Mail::DKIM module, for which I'm
grateful.

The client side code in amavisd is ready and is in -pre4, the
signing service is in the works and is not included with -pre4.
