Scott's approach solves our longest-running argument, but not in the way that I expected. We can embrace his approach with a single Security Consideration to this effect: "Mailing lists are frequently characterized by operating practices that depend on security through obscurity rather than Sender Authentication. Identifier rewrite may be used as necessary to evade detection of weak Sender Authentication practices. While exceptions doubtless exist, determining the trustworthiness of messages from any particular mailing list is difficult, and beyond the scope of this document. Participation risk should be taken into account when subscribing to a mailing list and accepting incoming messages from a list." However, this type of truthfulness does not seem to be what the charter document intended.
