It's worth looking into IMHO. Of course it opens enormous opportunities for DoS attacks, so load from "clients" should be carefully limited, and it should be optional (especially on opennet). There has been some discussion of this on FMS, I'm not reading FMS in term time ... Also note that transient "clients" would have precisely no anonymity!
