It was also problematic when the IP autoblocker hit other users besides
the self-blocking admin. Since the situation doesn't come up frequently,
people often weren't aware of the implications, though perhaps it's
better understood now after the "Every time we block Michael, we block
Danny too" fiasco. The underlying issue is a matter of courtesy,
especially toward non-admins.
