That sounds like a good idea.. but property changes hands a lot, and they will just blame the last sys-admin for making the change. [Having seen this before where we would turn off network ports for boxes that didnt have patches, and the port had to be manually turned back on.. or someone would move the machine to another port etc etc.]
In the end, it is an administrative action on the part of the network administrators to say what is acceptable to be placed on their networks. If they do not have that power, then they need to clearly get it in writing who does and tell them that they are the ones who are responsible for billable overtime.
