Sincerest apologies if this is the zillionth time you've been asked such a
question, but...
Is there an RFC which states that MTAs MUST/Should have a reverse-DNS entry?
As you know, there are some ISPs/MTAs out there that don't have reverse
entries and cause problems for us mail admins who have to try and explain to
our users that it's not our problem but that of the remote system being
badly registered.

Would it be worth adding a section to the documentation listing all the
relevant RFCs and what they refer to (i.e. delivery/lookup etc)?
