The key to something like this is not necessarily to autopunish for it, but simply to LOG it... so that the serverops can use it to decide whether they were cheating or not.
The fact is, no code like this will be perfect. Someone will figure out how to work around it--especially since it's open source. Then where would we be, artificially trusting code that is no longer doing what is intended?
I think, again, logging things that appear strange is the answer. Then ops can look for patterns and decide what, if any, actions to take that way.
