Hello,

This makes me wonder if it would be useful to allow probe hosts to specify
some kind of disclaimer for their probes? It would only make sense for
public probes though.

Another thing we have on our long-term todo list is to allow hosts to opt
out from some measurement types / targets, so that the scheduler could take
this into account when looking for vantage points for a UDM. I cannot give
an ETA for this though.
