No, maintaining a WHITELIST is way better. And I am thinking not of the bad 
guys now but the regular users who just want to use a client with additional 
features.

With a whitelist they know: this I can use without problems.

With a blacklist they never know if a client NOT on the list is a good one or a 
bad one that just didn't make it into the blacklist yet.

And for the bad guys: they would just rename their client if their old one got 
on the blacklist. And do this each time again.

So a whitelist is the only valid solution.
