  I think that we should avoid adding in special-purpose tables like
"blacklisting" into the node.  Eventually, there will be eleventy  
"special" tables that a node has to consult before it does anything,
and the code to do that will be a mess.

  I like the "scoring" idea: nodes are given a score for each closeness,
reliablility, speed, etc.  Then multiply each score by it's 
user-configurable weight and add them up.  Highest score wins.  Later,
we can add hooks to automatically take certain actions when a score 
is below a given level.
