Yes, that was a very good article.

I'm still a bit lost how this could actually _break_ something.
For obvious reasons the author can't say "updates 2822", how
should he fix it ? As you said the 822 issue is mentioned in
the senderid-pra draft.
Do you want more "security considerations", something along
the line of "PRA-participants agree to break an explicit MUST
in 2822" ?

Touché. OTOH the author isn't responsible for this "detail" -
in the spirit of TINW (for an IETF-we) it's "our" fault. Bye.
