You've got to imagine that in a future world this priced proportionally to the level of taint; addresses are devalued proportional to the degree of taint, maybe with some premium for completely clean addresses.
I'm not saying a centralized system will enforce this, just it seems like a natural consequence that will emerge.
As a side note, it's interesting to think that those "dirty" coins/wallets will be destined to circle around the black markets forever.
