Yes, it's probably about time to address this. While there are still
scenarios and setups out there that require the host to uniquely identify a
user, I also understand the problems the current behavior inherits.

First I wanted to solve this automatically (e.g. use mail_host if the
username isn't a fully qualified email address) but that most likely
doesn't cover all cases either. So a config option would be a proper
solution, I guess.

Any objections or other opinions?
