Stepping back for a moment...is there any reason that the identifier

No. As long as the MUA knows what to look for and when to look for
it, that shouldn't be a problem.
If not, then perhaps the answer is that the identifier SHOULD be
unique to that network, and it is RECOMMENDED to use the hostname
(either real or virtual) of the MTA which determined the contents of
the header.
Yes.
Maybe something like "the identifier SHOULD be unique to the trust
domain. It is RECOMMENDED to use the hostname of the MTA which
performed the authentication tests".
