So, the emails are generated from the DT, not from the drafts themselves?

1) draft emails -> DT identity (according to whole set of emails)
2) DT identity -> aliases using "primary" email.

A downside seems to be that I think that I can't have drafts with different
email addresses (representing wearing different hats), concurrently being used.
I don't have this requirement, but I just wanted to be clear about how it works.
It might be surprising to some.
