For Foster's sake, and for any Sellers who have received Buyers asking them to
lie on forms, or commit any kind of fraudulent activity, I suggest that this
be added to the page linked to below:

Buyer asked Seller to commit a fraudulent/illegal act that is against the law
of the country which Seller resides in.

http://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=79

It should be subject to the same rules normally followed when handling BrickLink
problem orders. And it would be subject to Admin and other people monitoring
these problem reports on a case by case basis having enough evidence supplied
by the Seller to prove their case.

But at least it would shut Foster up!

This is more general than specifically asking for one in which Buyer asked Seller
to lie on Customs forms, and would, if implemented, handle more varieties of
Buyer offenses without the need to have Admin driven nuts by ultra-specific Problem
messages. Removal of orders, feedback, etc, would be allowed to follow standard
BrickLink procedures.

If the Buyer wants to submit a counter-case as to why they should be allowed
to force the Seller to lie on Customs forms, by all means, this provides them
an opportunity to do so, but I do not think Sellers should be forced to lie down
and take Buyers that intimidate them without any recourse.

Cheers ...

No. There's simply no need. If you place an order in my store and include in
the instructions "please include some heroin in my order", I do not need a special
BrickLink function to tell me how to handle your order. I would either ignore
the request for heroin, or I would cancel your order and move on.
