That might help with bogus FAIL.  But doesn't help with all the phishing
schemes that can now deceive hotmail users with a bogus PASS.  Microsoft
is essentially threatening banks, paypay, etc with a Microsoft sponsored
increase in phishing fraud for hotmail customers unless they immediately
publish PRA records.  That's one way to build deployment - and a good
fit for Microsoft.
