I would expect a globops would be sent in response to services doing this
since most "decisions" made by services are so announced.

It is one of our oper policies that oper nicknames be as secure as possible.
Immediate kill and specific host in the access list etc. So noone could use
an opers name long enough to attempt to chat let alone cause their nickname
to be suspended.
