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?
Unfortunately I don't see the revert button, and rollback doesn't work if you're not an admin. Also the warn button doesn't work if the user doesn't already have a talk page. But the idea is good (I think I've played with it before actually).
I sort of like the basic format of CryptoDerk's vandalfighter tool better, but it's sort of about garden hose level now. If it automatically showed diffs, and let you warn/revert with a single click, that would be the firehose I'm looking for.
Admittedly, we haven't got sprinkler systems, AFAIK (although blocks might count, I suppose), but the rest is there...
Yeah, would it be that much of a stress on the servers to check edits against a regex and automatically quarantine them if they matched certain basic patterns?
