Yes, there is a field for this purpose.

sigsub_keyid:
        lex_token '\x10' keyid

No, it's not a MPI.
keyid: 
        {lex_octets(8)} octets {memcpy($$, $2.field, 8); free($2.field)}
;

PS: Yes, I talked to John before. There will be a formal specification, too.
    (make draft at my system...) It will be GPLed.
