How is sendmail shipped by default? I would recommend that if we
have to ship sendmail that we ship it as it comes "out of the box",
whatever that setting is.

BTW IDENT is not intended to be useful directly; it is only supposed
to be something you can return to a site when you're contacting
them about a problem.  It's up to them to map it back to some
responsible entity.
