IMO not allowed by RFC 3920 (section 9.1.2):
validate that the value of the 'from' attribute provided by the client
is that of a connected resource for the associated entity

It means either it can send only by its own resource or by some other
resource which is connected in that moment - so you would need another
connection anyway.
