Private such as only halfops and above could query the ban list...

Oh sorry, I wanted this so that people wouldn't know what was needed to evade bans, quite useful in my opinion especially with all the extended ban types. For this reason I kick first then ban, but this would also help.

thats not a valid point for having this added, i mean lets think about it...

banned ip/isp/proxy -> change ip/isp/proxy on disconnect
banned ident -> change on disconnect while changing proxy or ip or wotever
^ 2 bans already evaded when they disconnect

banned nickname, well they change nicks on irc anyway so usless
banned realname, again can be changed on irc anyway..
banned channel, part all your rooms on irc and u`ll evade this one..
^ all evadable on irc, :S

(on a side note, there are MANY people out there with mirc addons that change ident,proxy,nick,realname when they dc) so its a case of ban, and 5secs later they r back

In that case it shouldn't be an issue (though someone could race the ban with an autorejoin script - possible to prevent though[*]). Ban lists are effectively "private" to those not in the channel (correct me if I'm wrong, of course).

[*] - have 3 or 4 people ping him a couple times to fakelag him up, then he can't rejoin as fast - assuming he answers to ping.
