Earlier today, Kevin was kind enough to sponsor me for sysadmin-ask and pkg commits on askbot. I'm going to try my hand at rebasing our patches to the latest upstream release, in a few hours or tomorrow. There will be a feature branch if you want to watch it unfold.
I plan to poke at the django admin views as well. there's a view for auth/user pairings, for example, but it isn't searchable. I don't see an immediate way to list blocked users. If you can think of other ways to look at the data that would help, speak up :)
