if you argue that way, nothing needs to be anything (because opinions  
are different) ;).

The module provides a thin wrapper around Algorithm::FloodControl and  
implements one function that can be called within a controller action  
to decide, what to do.  It's like the Authorization plugin.  And  
because it only implements this helper function, the controller  
namespace is a bit confusing.
