I did not see this item submitted as errata, so I put it into the tracker:

  https://trac.ietf.org/trac/dmarc/ticket/30

I'd like to float the idea that this scenario might be something operators address when they're generating reports (perhaps mentioned in DMARC Usage Guide?). 

That said, the NOTIFY=NEVER idea makes a lot of sense to me, but I have to admit I'm not exactly sure how easy it is for operators to set this. If its not super obvious and available everywhere for free, I have to assume this means it'll be partially deployed forever, which puts us back at square one.

Sending with an empty RFC5321.MAILFROM sort of turns DMARC reports into a form of DSN. Implications unknown!
