There's no technical reason, an X-Confirm-Delivery-Of or similar should
do fine.  But I still like the idea of using the Message-ID; if we adopt
to another standardized technique later, there'll be no X-header cruft
left over.  I also like the general idea of using the Message-ID in
delivery notifications not only for uniqueness, but also to deliver some
information.  In my opinion a possible conflict is very unlikely.

This seems to be a matter of taste though, if an X-header is broadly
preferred, I wouldn't mind to adopt.

Regards, Gerrit.
