I think you might rather have mit-eddie!host2.domain!host.domain!user...
or, of course, you could make a rule to rewrite it into 
mit-eddie!host1.domain!host2.domain!host.domain!user...

how about

R$*@$+,$*	$1!$2$3		#take care of ,'s
R$*@$+:$-	$1!$2!$3	#take care of :'s

actually, don't most people do
R@$+,$+		@$1:$2

or something to make route-addr parsing easier?  In that case, just
remove the first @ and change :@'s and :'s to !'s.  ooh, wattapain.
R@$+:$*		$1:$2
R$*:@$*		$1!$2
R$*:$*		$1!$2

I'm sure that's not quite right... I'm doing this off the top of my head.
Anyone care to correct me?  Suggest another way to do it?
