Would be great to consider its future adoption and if possible to take it even

Why would this be a good thing for postfix to do?
There are already plenty of tools that generate block lists for the various
types of firewalls out there, and they do not require patching postfix.
SSHGuard and Fail2Ban are two that seem to work very well.
SSHguard is similar but only for ssh, not for postfix. Fail2ban and
equivalent log parsers are just too resource hungry, messy and more time
consuming to maintain. blacklistd is offering simplicity, central
management, extreme speed compared to any log parser with minimal
resources. There is no comparison really between log parsers and
balcklistd or SSHguard.
