Dave,
As a receiver I would like to know who sent the message, who signed the
message and any further information that might allow me to assign a spam
score accurately for further edge processing.
Thanks,

Arvel,

Your statement is, of course, entirely correct.  The problem is that it
probably
does not help the working group effort as much as a phrasing that
focuses on the
Receiver-side.  The reason is that a focus on the receiver will help us
focus on
adoption and use.

As soon as we have a basis for believing that Receive side folk with
actually
USE information provided by senders, then the senders are much more
likely to
provide it.  After all, providing it improves deliverability.

If we only focus on sender-side desires, then we will specify a jillion
clever
mechanisms that will not get used, rather than the few that will.
