An issue arises if a standard mechanism is used to provide spam feedback.
Such a mechanism will become a potential target of discovery in legal
proceedings...

That's not a systemic problem, that's a terms-of-service problem. If I were
operating a hub, I wouldn't re-publish the feedback nor offer any guarantee
that an item is distributed to subscribers. If the subscribers I serve
decided a site is a feed-scraper/affiliate/pills/pr0n site they don't like,
that's between us.

I'm not a proponent of YAGNI complexity. I'm assuming folks are interested
in directing creative energies outside of spam filtering, PSHB should be
informed by the failings of XMLRPC pings, SMTP and the other spam-infected
data streams we've all experienced with protocols of days gone by that were
too "simple" to account for these issues. It'd be a damn shame if hubs later
end up having to bolt on awkward afterthoughts (SPF, sender ID, etc), that's
why I'm raising it now.
