I hope we agree it's #1, it's a way for a recipient (or more likely
recipient's agent) up the food chain, not for content opinion
negotiation.  It occurred to me early on that if a message were
certified by something like VBR and the recipient hit the spam button,
you'd want to send the exact same abuse report to the sender and to
the certifier.

Re the questions, it looks like your proposed answers are all the same
as mine.  Unless I hear some disagreement, I'm inclined to consider
them all resolved and update the draft accordingly.

R's,
John
