Yes this simply adds to paperwork and extra coding.  It should be relatively 
trivial with an abuse report / IR oriented ticketing system to separate out 
genuine DDoS from random desktop firewall complaints about port scans from spam 
reports from all the outright spam that directly reaches such accounts.

Hi,
(CSIRT hat on)

I don't really agree with the vision where the taxonomy needs to be
overloaded into object fields.

I always perceived the abuse-c field already as the security-c.
People interested in processing security/abuse issues will take messages
received on the abuse-mailbox: seriously.

Moreover, there are also irt objects.

Regards,
Carlos
