The original intent back in RFC 5451 was to relay only those details that

alignment when rendering a message). ...

I suppose but 5451 also says it might be useful to message filters.

So that ship has sailed, meaning yes, we could register these too if
they're going to be useful to downstream agents.  Though for that matter,
you could just start using them even without registering them to see if it
would be helpful, because 8601 allows for local conventions (the
tried-and-true "ignore what you don't know" thing that DKIM introduced).

Sure, I can write the code to stick them in but it would be nice to have some expectation that I'm not going to collide with something else, or other people use different tags for the same thine.
