It is not incredibly complex; many people have already implemented bits of it.

As I stated, it requires *NO* MUA changes.  All of the work can be done on
the server.  It does require that you relay outgoing mail through the same
server all of the time; that's why we have STARTTLS and SMTP AUTH.

It requires that I upgrade every single MUA in the
world that I might possibly use,

Not at all; see above.

It makes it virtually impossible to even manage
addresses on *paper*, let alone in my head.

Your server keeps track of everything.
