For initial experimentation would could use an X- ESMTP keyword
without having to go through all the RFC lawyering.

IIRC, this is similar to the SUBMITTER extension proposed a long
time ago.  That raised many howls at the time.

The howls were because it was tied to PRA.  Not because it was an
ESMTP addition.

Both were issues.

I think the biggest issue is that there has to be a motivation for a reciever 
to believe something that the sender tells them during the ESMTP dialogue.  
The identities associated with SPF (and even SID to a degree) and DK/DKIM can 
be validated out of band (in DNS).

Submitter was just a hack to get you to go to DATA.  Note that Submitter was 
also the SID solution to the forwarding problem.  How would a TENBOX identity 
(regardless of if it's an AUTH parameter or an ESMTP keyword) be different?
