So how postfix interprets NAME and REVERSE_NAME?
I want to understand, how not to break, for example, "reject_unknown_client_hostname" and
"reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname" behavior, when passing names via XCLIENT but not
via postfix resolver.

Do NAME and REVERSE_NAME from XCLIENT agree with this description from
smtpd_peer.c ?
NAME agrees with the XCLIENT documentation - it is meant to be
something that other MTAs can implement too so it must not depend
on Postfix implementation details.
REVERSE_NAME never got documented. That should be fixed. It's
a PTR record value.
