I believe there is. The majority of good systems do not behave this way,
especially when issueing a RANDOM address which is what this thread is
about.

OK, let's throw out support for HELO, because the majority of good systems
do EHLO.  And throw out 8BITMIME support, only spamming pacific rim sites
use that in my experience.  Oh, and there' this other feature...

Equating "The majority don't do that" with "nobody should do that and it
shouldn't be supported" for a feature that has demonstrable usefulness is a
Bad Idea.
