That would be a very very bad idea. It would overload the Google abuse desk
with reports of trigger happy whiners who are too lazy to file a proper
complaint. And I'm telling you, the next thing that happens is that
somebody else writes a system tray proggie that detects things that he
doesn't like and the complaints are automatically sent to Google.
Unattended spam reporting, and all his trigger happy lazy friends start
using it.
It's the same way the spamhaus and spamcop blacklists became totally
unrelyable.
