Not entirely.

When DKIM is to obtaining greater acceptance or impose stricter 
acceptance policies, an Author-Domain signature should be used where 
practical.  Exceptions might be made for Parent Domain signatures, but 
such exceptions would not be in compliance with ADSP.  When a parent 
domain is deemed adequate to protect against intra-domain spoofing, then 
just a parent domain signature can be used.  This means a single DKIM 
public key record could be applied against several sub-domains.  When 
there is no immediate relationship with that of the Author-Domain, a 
single signature could be used for all email signed.  A mailing-list 
could be such a case.   It would be possible for each individual domain 
to then separately authorize this single signature within a single ATPS 
transaction.
