Instead, I would recommend that receivers whitelist their forwarders

forwarders may not even know what this is, but it is the domain
they would use in MAIL FROM if they rewrite the MAIL FROM like they should.

Ummm.  That is a contradiction. :-)  What I mean is, it would be nice if
the forwarders did SRS, but the SPF based whitelist is just as good
when keyed to the recipient.
