I think there's a terminology issue.
We cannot refer to this as a "trust" system, however "Wikitrust" brands it. We just can't. It misleads too many, and implies too much.
Call it a "text tracing system" or "a gadget to highlight text origins" instead. It's a lot less glamorous, sounds alot less dramatic, doesn't get the dollars - but it's got zero capability of misleading.

How would the blame maps work with people editing around vandalism? For example someone either blanks the page or does extensive vandalism to it (especially over the course of a couple days or a couple users). I would imagine it would be fairly easy if the bad contributions just got rolledback but would the old blamemaps still be reinstated if someone went in and manually copy/pasted the old version (or something very close) in or would the system count it as a new contribution?

I am a little concerned that we are adopting a metric into our interface without adequate testing.
