Stuart,
the method error on SRS is, that you really can trust no one.

You never know before, if an SRS Forwarder did check for SPF.
Thats the whole point.

In all cases of abuse on SRS-faking, you have the problem, that the first
thing gets tru,
before you could blacklist ...

The domainowner must have the chance to prevent forwarding,
if he likes to do so ....

And if you continue saying SRS is necessary for any reason,
i have to tell you that i wish there were a parameter like NOFORWARD,
which could be added to SPF.
As soon as this is found in an SPF record it declares it is forbidden to use
SRS,
(SRS should respect this) and it is futile trying to forward mail on my
domain

If SPF and SRS would have implemented this, i could also live with SRSs
existence....

These could also change our mind and implenenting it too ....
But as long as it is not done:
My answer is:  NO to SRS
