icky issues around the possibility of a bug,
mistake or hostile user injecting arbitrary IPs into the system
causing everyone to ban those IPs.
I can see how someone with multiple machines might want a site-wide
block list, but I'm not sure it is worth it for use by multiple
different admins. You'd have to put a lot of effort into securing
it. Seems easier to just protect yourself with the more conventional
ways.
Cheers,
Andy
