The fact of the matter is that there are a LOT of

And speaking for myself, it's like choosing not to join the brigade of
people putting out fires with buckets of water until people install
smoke detectors and sprinkler systems, and until the brigade is
equipped with decent fire engines and hire powered hoses.
Yes, that's a bit snobby. But hopefully I'm helping the project in
other ways.
Have you seen
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Lupin/Anti-vandal_tool
? It offers a filtered list of RC; with the ability to view the diffs
all-in-one-page, and convieient revert and rollback buttons... Is that
hose high powered enough for you?
Or if you're an IRC man, there are at least 4 different filters
running, I think... Take your pick. ;-)
Admittedly, we haven't got sprinkler systems, AFAIK (although blocks
might count, I suppose), but the rest is there...
