Dear Kurt,

Rather than seeing List-ID as representing feedback, it can
be used to restrict the scope of an authorization scheme as
a way to acknowledge a known relationship closely monitored
by the domain granting authorization.  Limiting the attack
surface so to speak.  This would allow less disruptive
methods in seeking cooperation in the removal of an errant
participant as described by TPA-Label.  TPA-Label does not
require modifications made to current verification schemes. 
It simply leverages available identifiers using a highly
scalable authorization method with little DDoS risk.

Domains wishing to improve protections beyond what a
"public" assertion would allow can adopt TPA-Label to offer
actionable and lower disruptive policy handling request
adjustments. Such "pointy stick" feedback better ensures
cooperative message handling.  When authorization is based
on comprehensive message signatures, this feedback can not
be leveraged by malefactors.

Regards,
Douglas Otis
