Or worse, he and a bunch of his cohorts decide to do it from different
hosts... simultaneously.  :P

That alone probably more my concern than anything.  You have people from
multiple sources come on, your priority instantly shifts from keeping the
clones off to keeping Services and/or the network usable.  This is
especially true in case those clones try to flood Services, dragging them 
to a crawl.
