Maybe report the UBE as spam, especially if it
violates RFC 3834.

One area, that I think SPF missed was CNAME.

Why do you think that ?  AFAIK SPF doesn't say
"don't follow CNAME", that is a rule in 2821bis
about MX.

IMO they'd better publish their future receiver
policy on a web page, and use its URL in their
future 5xx reject status codes.

Just "having" an SPF record could be a useless
"v=spf1 ?all" always NEUTRAL policy, this is by
definition the same as NONE (no policy).

Sigh, the one thing that is always worse than
spam are wannabe-anti-spammers.  You say you
have a policy, so is that s/wannabe/clueless/ ?
