Ah, but mailing lists are *already* doing it, at least GNU Mailman
implements an optional check for DMARC policy at the Author Domain,
and munges if and only it's reject or quarantine.  It's a popular

well, and it might go on the list of things you need to implement to
get a Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval.
