It wouldn't hurt.  FWIW, TMDA checks Reply-To: in addition to From:
and the envelope sender.

Exactly.  Which is why I don't understand why all MLMs don't do this.
It just makes things more difficult for list subscribers.  Majordomo
checks just From: and Reply-To:, ezmlm checks just the envelope
sender, etc.  Well, at least we are "fixing" this here.

Alrighty.
