Sure, we've considered them. Basically, every extension to this system
has to be unabusable in any way, or it doesn't go in. Define an "act
of war" in such a way that requires no admin intervention whatsoever,
and that is capable of limiting the freedom from notoriety effects to
only members of the opposing army, wherein said army can ONLY be
joined by those who have valid cause to join it... you get the idea.
It's quickly much tougher than it seems.

How do you trap it? :) And how do you define a "side?"
