'nowsp' canonicalization does not exist in "DKIMv2" (-base-01).  It was
eliminated, rather than deprecated, because it created a vulnerability.

sorry. i had misunderstood that line of discussion. and, yes, vulnerability counts as a showstopper.


While some -base-01 verifiers may implement legacy nowsp support, a
fully compliant -base-01 verifier may not work with a -base-00 signature
that uses nowsp canonicalization.

ack.

that still leaves useful over-the-wire compatibility, doesn't it?
