I should have been clearer that the motivation for address expiration is
to reduce the rate of increase of the massive pile of bitcoin addresses
out there which have to be monitored forever for future payments. It
could make a significant dent if something like this worked, and were
used by default someday.
Address expiration is not an enhancement to the payment experience and
it doesn't stop sender from doing something weird. Hacking a new
address for the recipient would be just as weird as hacking their client
IMHO.
