A few years I proposed a standard way to report abuse by email (X-headers) 
but nobody was interested.

I suspect forms are because the abuse desks want necessary information in 
a structured way that doesn't have to be manually processed each time, 
plus trying to hunt people who can't realise what information is needed to 
do a proper abuse complaint.
