So why all the warnings in the docs about not using an address in the DSN

That warning is appropriate for normal sender verification callouts. Not
for postmaster or header_sender callouts, which should have a non-empty
local sender (which doesn't trigger callouts of its own) -- or for
recipient callouts, which should use the same reverse-path as the mail
causing the callout.
So, I'm confused. Surely the avoidance of loops always requires callout
to use a null sender, and postmaster and header-sender callouts are
in contravention of that? I'd say that the warning is *always*
appropriate. Your "doesn't trigger callouts of its own" is not
under your control; it's the remote end which might be deciding to
make yet another callout.
