There doesn't seem to be a lot of options:

Make CQWW a sprint event (?);
Post audio clips of persistent offenders on a name-and-shame website and 
hope that the organisers will deduct points for ungentlemanly conduct;
Work the offenders, but don't put them in the log.

The cluster has its uses.  I did a fairly low key entry, trying this 
year to add to my 40M total.  I spent over an hour calling XW1B with 
100W and a dipole (unsuccessfully), but the cluster gave me the chance 
to try another few pile-ups at the same time.
