Comment:

 Agreeing on punting, but definitely not on the fact that it should be in a
 plugin. the guy who opened the ticket is enduring painful amounts of
 needless pings because sploggers and users who don't know better
 mindlessly copy a huge ping list and never change it afterwards.

 Placing the code in a plugin would defeat the whole idea: these same
 sploggers and mindless users would *not* install the plugin.
