A URL that I'm sure is real easy to get to if the network in question has 
just dropped off the face of the earth, or if you're getting DoS'ed from 
it...

Instead of keeping e-mail addresses in WHOIS, why not just keep a URL that
(theoretically) has up-to-date contact information.  This would allow the
organization to publish whatever e-mail addresses they wanted to, as well as
solving the problem of spammers walking the db.  A web page should be just as
easy (if not easier) to keep up to date than WHOIS data.
