I agree we shouldn't depend on 3rd party service for such important 
feature like watching for malicious activity.

If other bots implement "bot=yes" tag then it would be trivial to filter 
them, right?

But still ideal situation is that bots also use much smaller areas for 
edits so that you see if some bot has changed something in your area of 
interest, right?
