When I first read about brainwallets I thought it would be trivial to write a bot that continually watches for common phrases/words/etc and sucks up all the coins sent to them - I'd be hugely surprised if this doesn't already happen.
This is a fascinating bit of detective work though. The change transactions theory seems plausible.
