Thanks for the suggestion. I don't think it's suitable yet. It would also make it more difficult for users who do not allow the debian web pages to execute programs on their computers, whether for security reasons or because they are using an assisted access browser which doesn't support scripting. I don't believe we should let reacting to spammers hurt our users like that. Can your suggestion be developed to cope with that? Please see "Guideline 6.

If you look at the wml source code, I think that already happens at build time.
