People do use them as part of a scoring spam filter. But no sensible person uses SPF alone to do mail filtering. >Forwarders are one of the things that don't respond well to SPF.

Uh, no. I have lots of users with role accounts who read their mail at gmail. Forwarding is as useful as it ever was, even though it is ever harder to to do successfully. The fact that SPF can't handle forwarded mail is a failure of SPF, not a bug in forwarding.
