I have forwarded this entire mail to [email protected] so it is now 
in the bug queue. I expect to have these imlpemented after this weekend.

Note to implementors: I expect to put the code for handling of all of
these options into the library, that way the MTA unconditionally calls
(e.g.) srs_reverse, and the SRS library performs reversal only if
configured to do so. This reduces the patch workload for MTA maintainers.
