It seems to me that the best solution would be for the forwarder to

This is both suboptimal and technically extremely difficult to do without
de-optimising all email handling, as opposed to just the cases that are a
problem for Sender-ID. If you consider also alias-forwarding via a
departmental server it's even worse.
