If you do that, bounces don't go back to the sender; they end up looping
instead.
#1: bounces _do_ get back to the sender, they just don't go back to the author
#2: if they end up looping, the same will happen when the forwarding user
himself
sends a message to himself. IOW: this is a problem that has nothing to do
with SPF. The forwarding user screwed up. This is a good reason BTW why
the author should not be bothered by bounces.
