Wouldn't this open up the possibility of a DDoS-type attack performed by having millions of transactions of 1 satoshi (0.00000001 BTC) in dirty coins flung at the merchant by someone's botnet? It would force the merchant to reject each one at a computational cost, whether by giving the money back or by transferring it to the government.
