Why does it have to be hard? Restricting the filter to addresses
which
(A) the customer asserts are theirs

How does the customer do that in a way that scales?

I don't think any of this is rocket science, but it apparently is a
real block to BCP38/84 implementatin.

Well, there are two issues: how many exceptions at the transit layer will 
actually be needed, in practice...

and how much trouble will there still be there if we can get appreciable
uptake at the edge?
