It's perfectly valid.

This is the DMARC mitigation in mailman3.

Before/without: 

sender -> list -> subscriber

If sender has a restrictive policy / authorized senders, when subscriber
checks they see email claiming to come from the sender, but really
coming from the list server, so they reject it/drop it/mark it as spam.

After/with:

sender -> list -> list rewrites the email -> subscriber

The list accepts the email, rewrites it and signs it with it's own DKIM
signature. Now the subscriber sees the mail as coming from the list
server and valid.

Sadly with google pushing/requiring DKIM, and more providers setting
restrictive policies, this mitigation is really needed on lists anymore.
