Yes, but at present it is not defined in a transport. It is only defined
in a system filter and in ACLs. So I thought it kind of made sense to
use the same name in a transport. But for less ambiguity, a new name
could be invented; $transport_recipients, perhaps?

I don't think there's any problem with it. Somehow the list would have
to be made available to the expansion functions.
