Once the client is making two queries, why accept collisions? Are
we (after all these years) finally defining RFC-822/2822/5322 local

Is a CNAME per-user really a major burden?
It's not one CNAME, it is many CNAMEs. You'll be hashing paul, Paul
paul.wouters, Paul.Wouters, etc. I'd be better of with a wilcard :P
The client needs smart logic anyway, and the client at least has a user
it can interact with. It can ask "A key for [email protected] does not
exist but there is a key for [email protected]".
Needing to roll out between 2 and 4 different capitalizations for
different [Ff]irstname.[Ll]astname makes everything more errorprone
and the client still needs its logic and user interaction.
