I may have missed explaining how a binding approach removes the eye-
test.  Consider binding information has been retained for important
correspondents within a DKIM aware MUA.  When subsequent messages arrive
offering the same set of identifiers, (based upon binding assurances
such as email-address, signing-domain, and perhaps opaque-identifier,)
this message would be highlighted in some fashion.  When a look-alike
email arrives, it would not be highlighted.

At that point, the user would be alerted and could then examine the
identifiers using a fixed character-set to decide the disposition of the
message, and whether the identifiers should be included within the
profile for that entity.
