Allowing users to write their own filters leads to annoying problems.
Setting up systems to safely allow users to choose their own filters
tends to be expensive, and is a non-trivial issue.  It's not so bad
for a small ISP with clueful users; but I wouldn't want to even think
about AOL's customer support issue if they tried it.
