For today, what what you are saying amounts to is if you want an SPF
Pass, set up your own mail server.

Why is that?  You _can_ have SPF "Pass" with a shared and improperly 
secured MTA, it's just that the results won't be perfectly reliable.  Is 
that a show-stopper?

Today no, but in a world with domain based reputation services and RBLs, 
yes.

I can't afford to have my e-mail become undeliverable because my domain was 
forged by another customer of my ESP.
