I agree with barry.  Do it.
Hasn't this idea come up before?  I seem to remember other people
talking about this idea.  My idea was to have the servers match
the IP addresses and just bitbucket messages that didn't match,
with the addition that if $fromhost was 0.0.0.0 and the message
was authentic, it would go through.  This would allow hiding of
location without sacrificing traceablility of messages.
