Comment (by ericlewis):

 attachment:24193.1.diff is a work in progress towards CAPTCHA-based
 throttling.

 Currently implemented so that after a 10th failed attempt on a user
 account within 2 minutes, a captcha is displayed on the wp-login page.

 There's a lot more to do here. The form submission doesn't even verify the
 captcha result at this point.
