I'm not assuming the problem is not inherent, or that somehow you can

You can check any name you like against SPF1 record. Its rather the
question of results of such a check and if spf1 record was setup on
purpose to accomodate this check.
I agree. What I like about Wayne's new wording is that keeps a firm NOT
RECOMMENDED, yet allows other identities to be used under the right conditions.
Without explicit approval of the record owner, checking other
identities against SPF version 1 records is NOT RECOMMENDED
This approval could be in the form of a clear, unambiguous declaration of
the sender's identity, with no conflicting requirements. OK: "Hello,
this is ebay.com, sending from <IP>. You can check that any way you want."
Not OK: "Hello, our SUBMITTER name is ebay.com. You must use PRA to check
that."
