  *   Again, authenticating the *connection* from the RP to the backend services is good, but is completely orthogonal to authenticating the headers themselves.

I strongly disagree.  Authenticating the sender allows the receiver to make a trust decision in the provenance and quality of the data it gets from the sender.  Do you disagree with that?
