Solutions are possible with procmail.  I am planning to make a variety
of workarounds available to people:

1) patch to sendmail so /etc/aliases will work transparently
2) SRS in .procmail (will probably involve a program |srsforward which calls 
Mail::SRS)
3) |srsforward should also work inside a .forward environment
3) patch to other MTAs

er, 4) I think. ;)

5) /etc/aliases contains

  addr: "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi newaddress(_at_)example(_dot_)com"

to send the msg with a new envelope-from; bounces will go back to the
postmaster at your domain.   In this setup, I think this is appropriate,
since generally the failure case is that the forward address has changed
and the aliases need to be updated.
