So, the problem is mainly a marketing/education problem. No matter what change
to objects or presentation will be agreed upon, nothing short of limiting
access to the database would stop the uneducatable or "let's hit them all"
type uncooperative tool writer. The education or usability problem can IMHO
best be achieved with a dedicated interface for "abuse" purposes, be it a
web interface or a dedicated whois server. No new objects are needed.
