Maybe I'm only talking about smtpmail.el, I haven't really looked at sendmail.el. The _only_ thing smtpmail.el uses "envelope-from" for is to send the MAIL FROM command to the server. It seems totally obvious to me that the only sane default for this is whatever is in the From: header. (Of course the option to set it to whatever you like should remain.)
