Whenever I see a python-requests user-agent I sometimes keep the connection open indefinitely without responding, to see if the developer was incompetent and forgot to set a timeout. Responding to other certain clients with 'Location: file:///dev/urandom' is also mildly entertaining.

My point would be, I'm not sure if this wouldn't be too damaging to the mental health of programmers if everyone was doing shit like that.
