 The discussion settings page has a textarea to set up a blocklist with
 this description:


 {{{
 When a comment contains any of these words in its content, name, URL,
 email, or IP address, it will be put in the Trash.
 }}}

 But if I look at the code the user agent is used too in
 `wp_blacklist_check`

 I was wondering if this is made intentionally, because the user agent is
 easily spoofed.

 Should we remove the user agent completely from `wp_blacklist_check` or
 should we change the wording to add the user agent, too?
