Well then it gets into the details of the specific hypothetical. Presumably they are taking the coins because the dollar is hyperinflating. So the coins are taken overtly, and sent to known addresses because they would want the world to know they control them.
In that case, blacklisting those addresses is simply the least risky code change and doesn't require a lot of coordination or rolling back the chain - it would also be a soft fork.
For the people who want their coins back, they would have to do a hard fork rollback - which I don't think is workable, but they have nothing to lose by hard forking at that point.
