Thank you, Steven, for finally adding status header 418 to WordPress! I’m not entirely
convinced yet that this HTCPCP implementation fully conforms to RFC 2324 specifications,
though. 😉 For example, it might be desirable to handle response cases a little 
less strictly overall. Perhaps you might wish to consider something along the line
of Google’s Teapot (tying the response header to the request URL, that is), which
I think would run less of a risk of putting off users who didn’t try to brew coffee
with a teapot. It would be really nice to see this implemented before next April
1st!
