Controversial take of the night: We all knew that spam was going to be a major issue to resolve eventually. We hoped we wouldn't see massive levels of spam for some time, and we could deal with it then.
Yet, some things just never get attention until the problem is painful. There's always more exciting things to work on in the moment. New features to implement, new interoperability opportunities, and new ideas for "other stuff" clients to build. No one will find the time to deal with the things we KNOW need to be dealt with in the midst of that. Not unless they are pushed to it by pain.
As the saying goes, "Necessity is the mother of invention."
