Although this doesn't solve the DOS potential, I'd rather go for a new 
atom:source child element indicating the source feed's Id or URI. When 
PlanetBar and PlanetFoo republish a feed from Baz, they should "move" 
the entry metadata into an atom:source element. They'll then also add 
that new element (atom:feedid ? doh, yet another two-word name). When 
PubSub republish the entry, it preserves the atom:source content as-is, 
preserving the source feed's Id at the same time.
