Interesting proposal.

You wouldn't be able to use 4474 as is, because it has no way to sign a new 
header, afaik. (though I'm all for a 4474bis ;)
I know this is only a straw-man and too soon to get into the details, but I 
can't help myself, so I wonder why you wouldn't just put this email-style URI 
*inside* the From-URI as an escaped uri or user param.  That way it avoids a 
new header and gets signed by 4474 as is, and really what you're saying is it 
is an alias property of the From-URI.

And lets the UAS offer its user the ability to add both the e164 and 
email-forms into its contact address book.  I'm not sure if that's good or bad, 
but it's a nice feature.
