It would be pretty disasterous regardless of a valid DKIM signature.

Maybe or maybe not. In the case of the DNC/Podesta it might have had utility for someone wishing to claim forgery. I don't really claim to know whether it'd be a useful legal mechanism or not, so while I do think it might, that'd need more checking for sure. S.
