Will that mean that for every mailing list that your users subscribe to, you 
would have to update/amend your DMARC DNS RR to declare the Organizational 
Domain on which said mailing list is hosted?

If so, I see it as not very scalable, error prone, intensive in human labour, 
and a reactive solution instead of a proactive one (i.e, only after you 
discover your users have subscribed to a mailing list, and DMARC is causing 
them pain, you enter the picture and amend your DMARC DNS RR to solve the 
problem which already has happened).

On the other hand, if I am misunderstanding your proposal, please disregard 
this message.
