Let's say I route all traffic from list X to its own separate mailbox, but I 
also want my MUA to flag for special attention mail sent to that list by people 
I hold in high regard, for example, and I want that to be based on their 
accumulated reputations.  I either have to base that on something forgeable 
like From:, or on something reliable like "d=".  That doesn't seem magical to 
me.

It's a bit of a contrived example, but right now I would have to maintain that 
list manually; it would be nice to have it done automatically based on feedback 
I provide to a reputation system.
