This filter could be useful to block brute force amplification attacks against WordPress XMLRPC. see: https://blog.sucuri.net/2015/10/brute-force-amplification-attacks-against-wordpress-xmlrpc.html

Thanks for the contribution.

I must admit that we still don't use the wordpress filters on our wordpress servers. Let's implement that tomorrow :-)

@tersmitten Good idea! Some attacks made me implement this. :)
