I think this is an excellent idea. (Very good example, Verne!) The easier we make it for people to do something, the more likely it will be done.
Whether it's voluntary or mandatory...well, I haven't thought that through. If it becomes mandatory, I'd like to see a great deal more warnings before a block. What number? I don't know.
Also, I thought about setting up a Yahoo group (Open) survey about topics to try to identify the trigger topics most likely to be used. And perhaps if this format is implemented, there could be a category for "other" and then the person can elaborate a bit in the subject line? Is that still do-able, and is it a good idea?
