Picking an identity based on the 2822 headers is closer to what
recipient thinks of as the identity and can require fewer and simpler
changes for MTAs that need them (in the form of SUBMITTER).

This will likely create a practice where providers simply insert an RFC
2822 Resent-From header, to avoid difficulties, if Sender-ID checks become
an encumbrance.

I'm sure that it's what will happen. Any mail coming out from big providers or 
forwarders will bear a "Resent-From: 
<MAILER-DAEMON(_at_)big-provider(_dot_)com>" and 
then PRA/Sender-ID will then show completely useless.
