No, there definitely is a benefit. Simplicity of use, and the ability to stop
spam globally (for Wikimedia) are concerns. AbuseFilter was never (AFIACT) for
spam in particular - but rather pattern vandalism (which you have said
yourself). I'd love to make it better for use against spam though - if that's
done then maybe this could be considered INVALID/WFM/whatever.

I think this should be duped to bug 4459, and that can maybe be considered
resolved by AbuseFilter at some point in the future.
