I don't like the idea of having different handling methods for different messages. We have already had one user complain about this even though we aren't doing it!
Technically, you are ... by munging the from field on all messages. To wit, the difference in handling becomes very obvious when only receiving the message directly, presumably because the recipient address is also in the "To:" or the "Cc:" field and the list then may (or may not) send a duplicate, exhibiting the different handling method.

Since Mailman was breaking the signature by re-folding the headers, this could have been resolved in one of many ways; including signing with a relaxed header canonicalization, or by having the list server strip the DKIM signature entirely (having been verified by the MTA already). There may (or may not) have been discussion amongst the committee members about possible modifications to the list, but there doesn't appear to be any transparency regarding this, and there certainly wasn't any requests for consultation (commentary/suggestions) from ordinary list members *before* making a seemingly unilateral change.
