If there's a problem with implementing it, I don't think Stefan should waste his time. Even if you _can_ abuse openurl(), you need access to the server. So, it's inherently going to be abused in very isolated incidents, especially given that most of the servers played are Classic playerworlds, and those servers tend to have somewhat decent response times to major staff abuses.
Similarly, how often to users try and trick people to visiting shock sites? I haven't experienced much, and I would say Valikorlia would be more prone to that. If there's really difficulty in implement it, I still don't think the problem is that prevalent. And I don't see how a prompt would 'save' somebody from being tricked, anyways.
