What is the reason for making SRV-ID support required for email client
software implementations? I've written certificate verification code
that is used in one email client (Mozilla Thunderbird) that doesn't
support SRV-ID and there's currently no plan to add SRV-ID.

More generally, I think it would be good to avoid adding the
additional requirement that clients support SRV-ID support so that
email clients can use any RFC6125-compliant certificate verification
library.

That said, maybe I'm not understanding the importance of SRV-ID.
Clarification of why supporting SRV-ID is important would be useful.

Cheers,
Brian
