it seems like there are better ways for lists to tag their contents and for MUAs to display information about list origin to recipients.

I agree.  But I don't think lists are the only problem here.

I think there are increasing numbers of proxies and filters that all would like to communicate with the recipient, and are prevented from doing so by MUA's that show only certain fields, period.

If a solution for lists generalizes to virus scanners, security software, etc, etc, good. If it's just a special case for lists, I don't think we've solved the problem.
