It doesn't change that.  It doesn't alter the current use of the From: 
field.

Mediators might, and so far people have thought that acceptable.

My suggestion is that you offer some detailed analysis of current 
security-related processing and specify how that will change to the worse.

The tendency for these topics is for people to make overly-terse, 
overly-broad assertions and conclusions, without any of the detail that 
permits validating the claim.
