I can't remember where or when I heard it, but I had a Google rep tell
me to just mark any comments in violation of the policy as spam. Maybe
if we're lucky someone from Google will chime in and verify that's OK.

I can always hope. :)

My guess is that no human ever sees the result of a "spam" click,
anyway. It's far more likely to be a Craigslist-like system where, if
enough people mark a comment as spam, it's automatically killed. And if
we're lucky, then if enough of a single user account's comments are
spam, that user is banned. If we're REALLY lucky, then that user is
ninja-banned (meaning that they don't ever realize that they're banned).
