Couldn't we programmatically detect:
(a) that the port is not forwarded, or
(b) if their IP has recently changed, or
(c) if they are a low-uptime node

...and deny/warn/hide the invite feature if that is not the case?

I think it would be "a good thing" to encourage people to leave their node 
running, and a simple footnote in the invite page might suffice for that.

Still reading up on the TURN server...
