If a verifier decides an ARC is invalid, it's supposed to set "cv=invalid", when generating its own ARC-Seal. This seems odd; we're cryptographically signing a chain that is known to be broken, meaning the next handler might not even be able to get as far as consuming the "cv=" value we're putting there because the chain can't be validated in the first place.

Perhaps a better approach would be to use the regular A-R to indicate the chain is bad, and stop.


+1, except I think not 'perhaps' but rather 'definitely'.

If it's broken, it's broken.
