Shouldn't it be possible to de-duplicate these based on message ID before
sending aggregate reports back?  Can/should this be added to DMARC the next
time the specification is updated?

There may be interesting anti-abuse cases that justify storing this kind of information in a readily accessible form for e.g. de-duplication, versus a static log file.

But even if receivers / mailbox providers are already doing that, where's their incentive for the reporting change you describe? What would be the resulting improvement in the quality of mailstreams sent using a given domain? The reduction in customer support, or increase in customer satisfaction, of the kind they purportedly see when it's easier to detect fraudulent messages?

I can understand how the reporting change you suggest *might* be useful to the individual sender, where the sender and the domain operator total 1 or 2. Can you help us understand what's in it for the other parties involved? And how does it help in the more typical case where there are between dozens and thousands of users of the domain?
