The redirect script could automatically redirect to approved pages or
just print the URL (unlinked) with a little note why the URL is not
automatically redirected. People could copy and paste it (hm) to
follow the link. The unlinked URL does not increase a spammers page
rank, does it?
Another idea is to make that redirectors-page not be indexed by search
engines if you want to link the printed URL (which is more user friendly
than cutnpaste).
