This would fix the problem of replying with the incorrect address, yes.

However it does not fix the issue of selecting the right ip address on
systems with multiple IP addresses ("Originating / initial ip address
wrong").

Adding this option sounds rather reasonable, but it does not fix the
whole issue.

Note that both issues would be fixed with IP address binding.

Nico
