Yes.  It follows the same construction, and rationale, of not messing around with the Reply-To: field, when enough information is available in list software-specific headers to build whatever user indications or reply functionality is required.

But I do understand people's desire of these sorts of tags, and I know for a fact that many commonly-used UAs simply have neither the filtering nor display capabilities to resist them.  So I would not oppose a general motion to make this change.  It's one less nice thing about the ietf list, though.
