I personally dislike the idea at all. It breaks many current usages of
SMTP, but does less harm to spam.

Ever thought of travellers, wanting to use different mailaddresses, via
a single application/interface? And using the same server all the time?

What about forwarding?

Sorry, but IMHO SPF does more harm than good.

I personally really discourage blocking based on it, it may be useful in
a score-base system, but NOT stand alone.
