I suppose it might be possible to track "first damage".
Fairly easy for weapons, You would simply need to track who shot ya and at what time. Some sort of time-out would also be needed to erase the record after a few minutes. Then when a death resulted the records would be compared and who fired first could be determined.
Ships bumping is a lot harder as it is impossible to determine if it was deliberate by either party. Both parties would have to be tagged.
A tiered approach to the penalties might work though.
Bumping - temp reduction of standing by 1 level.
Firing - temp KOS
Killing after being shot - 0
Killing after being bumped -200
Killing after firing first -400
All academic unless Gulid is actually willing to keep track of it.

I still see too much room for abuse. I agree something needs to be done though.
