Create a way for admins to select if they have to approve all new users.
Then have the following methods for new user approval:
- by email to selected admin on a per instance basis
- through an admin panel on a per instance basis
- through an admin panel on a batch basis
- through an admin panel by setting up rules for approval (for example: user admin must have a specific domain - helpful for big companies)
This would help reduce the amount of spam for some users.

My scuttle site is constantly (daily) being hit by spammers. I finally had to rename the registration module to stop the spam.
I'm interessed in this feature too!
at least, we could have a way to moderate new bookmarks.
I think of several measures against spam:
- New users are restricted until they get "approved" by an administrator. They may create new bookmarks, but that bookmarks get flagged as "restricted" any only they can see it.
- New bookmarks by restricted users get spam-checked against i.e. akismet and refused when they are thought as spam.
- A tool to delete restricted bookmarks and restricted users.
