I wonder whether it would be better to make the exclusion list configurable.

As I understand it, the intention is to avoid treating connections through a load balancer or proxy as though they're the same client device. The assumption that private address = proxy is a fair default, but some sites will be using public addresses for their proxies. And that's only going to increase with IPv6.
