I'm sure you really meant this, but just to be careful, what with this
being a technical point in a technical forum, it's worth clarifying that
the rewriting is for the rfc5322.from field and not the rfc5322.sender
field.

I have an additional suggestion.

If we're going to do this - and I'm not going to offer an opinion on whether or
not it should be done - I'd like to see it done in a fashion that's both
detectable and reversible. That way people using sieve or procmail or whatever
will be able to undo the damage.

The most straightforward way to accomplish this would be to make copies of the
original fields with different names, but of course many other approaches  are
possible.
