Your reading of the archive shows rather more complete and definitive 
discussion than mine. In fact I read the archive as tending in the direction 
of changing the specification to use Sender: rather than From.

Would you please explain the basis for assessing that this topic got 
sufficient discussion and that there was rough consensus on it?

Since this specification modifies RFC2822 that fact needs explicit justification.

The current SSP language modifies RFC2822, and so there should be considerable 
clarity about the need, the benefit, and the impact.
