Agreed. I think it would also - at the trust boundary - need a filter before
the DKIM/SPF verifier that adds the Authentication-Results: header. Its job
would be to remove any Authentication-Results: that claim to belong to ones
own ADMD.

      +-------------+    +------------+     +------------+     +------------+

At least that's my understanding at the moment.
