No.  But why not return to the old approach, with more than
one From-address there MUST be a Sender, so just take this.

Yeah, in theory mailing-lists might do strange things with
an existing Sender.  OTOH that's just broken, they could
use Errors-To (or if they want to support PRA Resent-Sender).

Above all I've _never_ seen mails with more than one From-
address, not one.  And for news it's also extremely rare.

Whatever that problem is, it's no showstopper.  Bye, Frank
