I am planning and working on an extension to fut that will permit
sysadmins to share the ip's of idiots.

denyhosts.sf.net?
While denyhosts is a good concept, I question whether it provides a real
security benefit. If a new remotely exploitable vulnerability is
discovered in OpenSSH (or other ssh implementation) it will most likely
have nothing to do with trying to brute force passwords. Doing a quick
search through http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/ turns up recent SSH
security issues (not necessarily highly critical, but it is only a
matter of time).
.. its recommendable as a second instance of a "firewall" framework.
