To be honest, I wouldn't bother. Although many people _publish_ SPF

"Relatively few people" -- so exactly how did you figure this out?  Any 
meaningful statistics?

BTW, there are people who use SPF to ensure that they send bounces only to 
SPF-verified (i.e. SPF "Pass") sender addresses.

If any sites _are_ rejecting the mail which you forward, simply advise
them to stop using SPF. Refer them to something like
http://david.woodhou.se/why-not-spf.html or something similar.

You forgot the <plug type="shameless"> tags.

Whenever I've found a site rejecting the mail which I forward, they've
disabled their SPF checking as soon as I've actually explained how it
'works'. 

I don't forward mail without rewriting the sender, ergo I don't have your 
problem.  Lucky me.
