I would really like this feature put into effect. I am tired of getting spammed by one user that I blocked two weeks ago.

Well, the inherent problem is that this is the main way to request the review of a block. Certainly we have the unblock list at en.Wikipedia, but at the smaller sites/languages this could seriously inhibit the ability of a user to explain his/herself.
