I agree that this might be a justification for standardizing some sort of reputation protocol. But it's not at all clear the document at hand describes a protocol which is technically sound, and it certainly doesn't have rough IETF consensus. I'm willing to defer judgment about whether such a protocol might reasonably resemble DNSxL, or whether it can reasonably use DNS at all - but I have reason to doubt it.
