This whole situation seems like massive, massive overkill for the situation at hand, and the proposed changes simply inconvenience experienced users who know what they're doing.

At the risk of drawing up a terrible analogy, have we not learnt anything from watching the way governments have handled the risk of terrorism? It's the same thing here where malicious users are the terrorists. Turn the entire site into a 'police state' if you will but hackers and phishers etc will still get through eventually
