Hmmm.  It occurs to me that it might help things to have reports from those

are using the header.  Who is using and how they are using it could help

standardization, and b) considering proposed changes to the specification.
  
We have a number of plug-ins to our MTA which evaluate arriving messages 
using several known message authentication schemes (DKIM, Sender-ID, 
SPF, DomainKeys).  Those plug-ins instruct the MTAs to add 
Authentication-Results: headers to indicate to any downstream agent that 
may be interested (MUA, filter, whatever) what the results of those 
evaluations were.

Elsewhere in our commercial product line, other programs may make 
routing/filtering/filing decisions based on the contents of that header 
field.
