If you folks are really serious about this, can I suggest using BGP for this ? 
Maybe a
multi-hop BGP-session like Team Cymru already has for bogons [0]. With 
different communities
for different types of traffic that should be dropped.

That way you, the network operator, could choose what you what to drop and how.

They are already a pretty trusted party if people actually use these 
bogon-sessions.

Might it actually be a structural solution ? Atleast if I didn't forget 
something important.
