What is not optional is the probably maintenance complexity of this scheme.

Moreover, it seems unlikely that it will even cover the field. A partial 
cloak might indeed be worse than none, in that it will give some 
developers an illusion of having security.

Before we embarked on such an enterprise, I would personally want to see 
fairly loud clamor from our user base for it.
