If YAM WG participants view it as such a case, they can voice their concern.

See above - I think pointing out the possibility of client signatures is
important and the text should be retained, but without the

the move to full standard.
Ok.
Dave suggested the following text:
"Message modification can affect the validity of an existing message
signature, such as by DKIM [DKIM], PGP [RFC4880], and can render the
signature invalid. This, in turn, can affect message handling by later
receivers, such as filtering engines that consider the presence or absence
of a signature"
As an individual comment, the "that consider ..." could be dropped as
the text mentions that validity can affect message handling.
Dave and Ned are in favor of including some text and Pete is for
removal. I would appreciate some more feedback.
