Sure, I've provided mine in public now. I will attempt to remember your preference, although I'm not sure I think it's necessary. What's the failure mode we're protecting against here? That my engineers are lying and have *faked* my reviewed-by tag? Don't you think I'd *eat* them if I ever found that happening? What's next? That you only accept such tags in signed email, so that the dishonest engineer in question can't *fake* an email from me to the list? They know I'm afflicted by Exchange so they can always send that fake message with a message-id matching another message they know is already in my inbox, so Exchange will helpfully discard theirs. :)
