I still can not see why it should be allowed to have the packet which
specifies the key used for the signature outside the hashed field (signature).
Creating an exception from the "zero-unhashed-packet-rule" makes no sense to me.
Yes I know old version 3 keys had the key-ID outside the hashed part too,
but that seemed unjustified to me as well.

Me too please, I asked Phil for reasons but he has not come out with any
yet.
