I think that Pedro's approach is better: those users should get right to delete page (as well to undelete if they make a mistake; or it is not necessary?), too. Vandals and spammers are making new pages, too and those pages should be deleted.
They all need blocking. In the end, we might as well give the whole set out.
With central blocking feature this is not so necessary. A couple of persons (stewards) may cover that. If it is possible to categorize block (like: "open proxy", "dynamic IP" etc.), it would be possible to make some exceptions (for open proxies at some projects). However, there is a permission "bypass open proxy restriction", which may be given to users from countries which filter access to Wikipedia.
