Perhaps we should consider a "tit-for-tat" strategy with query-rejects. We maintain a score for other nodes in the network (we could just use the CP - although it gives the highest score to nodes about which we know nothing), and rather than just Query Rejecting everyone, we try to bias our QRs towards nodes that have a lower score.
We need to be careful about how this scoring is done, a node that is working really hard but gets overloaded, and has to query-reject, doesn't deserve a low score. When we QR a node, we raise its score. Comments?
