If I were in your shoes I would consider SMIME or PGP signing my
mail.  

That transcends the whole worry-space of channel-based
designated sender schemes.

Yes, I can do that, but it does tend to confuse the less technically
oriented people I correspond with.

As I said before, this isn't a SPFv1 thought, its for v2 or whatever
comes next.  

I do like SPF, just think it could be a little better.
