Only problem I see would be the fluidity of IP addresses. Most people have dynamic IPs. I unplug my modem for 5 minutes, I get a new one assigned to me. Even ignoring that, a really determined person could do a bunch of things: get a new ISP, use a phone tether, connect at a public place, hide behind 7 proxies, etc.
Though I would totally get behind an effort that would permanently ban the types of offenders you list.

I've voted no for the above quoted reason and for a similar reason.
One of the local pizza parlors has a list on the wall next to their telephone with a list of 'do not answers'. The phone numbers on this list correspond to people who fail to pay or prank in some other manner. However, that list has been up there for ages. Surely the owners of some of those numbers have changed by now, but the ban still remains on the wall. I would hate to be the poor soul who happened to by all the terrible luck in the world run in to a similar situation here were bans by IP implemented.
