In order for this to be effective, defendants need to be able to discover other defendants being sued by the particular troll firm for that particular patent. Then the defense can be funded by multiple companies and the defense becomes more formidable.
This almost screams for a website - a central place to facilitate matchmaking between companies under suit by a particular troll.

Unfortunately you're not going to see many companies saying "Yeah! We're being sued by that guy too!" because that quickly reduces to "we're being sued!", which never goes over well with investors, shareholders, employees, etc.
