Maybe I won't even bother with such nonsense multi-address from lines, which probably is going to break along some down stream anyway. In all honesty, it is rare to encounter this, IMV.

Read my previous message. It maybe rare now but what you ended up doing is moving 3rd party senders to where they would change From and add their name into it as 1st address and move or put what would have been or was original From address as 2nd one, basically they would be emulating current use of "Sender" (in fact they would still use Sender as required by RFC2822 in cases of multi-address From). I'm not saying its all bad, but its a change to current email system practices.

Agreed. This could be an expected outcome of a policy restriction placed upon the From address.

BTW - In above scenario I'm actually more concerned with situations where the intermediate party would >>CHANGE<< From header field - same parties that currently add Sender. First of all I dont want that happening to my emails no matter who they go through and 2nd it will break existing signature if it existed.

Depending upon how common are the restrictive policies that prohibit other sources for a First Party Address, expect the First Party Address may actually become a party or First Party Address(es). An original signature being broken will not matter. It would be illogical for the entity making the change to not also sign the message. Handling multiple From addresses may become part of the new landscape.
