I'm in strong agreement with the "SHOULD" (at least).  If we want to
ask the MUA developers to do something to inform the end user about
authentication results, we sure as shooting should put our protocol
where our mouth is by putting in a requirement that MTAs give them
that information.

I have no opinion about the specifics of Vlatko's list, and I also
suspect that it might want to be "SHOULD provide these A-R data *by
default*," with the nuance that MTAs can provide a configuration
option to reduce the chatter.  (They're presumably logging all this
information, right?  A-R is a convenience for MUAs, sysadmins can use
the logs although they too might find an A-R field very convenient.)
