Honeytokens (via Slashdot) are Honeypots at the database record level. They are defined as being records that should normally never be accessed and thus indicate that someone is snooping around.
I think the exact same idea has already been applied to spam control, by creating fictious e-mail addresses that should never receive e-mail, posting them in some webpages just waiting for spam.
Update: By reading the comments at Slashdot I realized the idea has already been applied in lots of different fields. Namely to catch those pesky lunch thiefs.

More info on Mozilla’s future at mozillaZine
The Future: The Mozilla Foundation and the End of Netscape In addition, there will be a new Board of Directors, made up of Mitchell Baker, Brendan Eich Christopher Blizzard and some new faces, including Open Source Applications Foundation head Mitch Kapor.
And as I predicted the redesign of mozilla.org reveals the shift between developing for developers towards developing for the end user:
The Future: The Mozilla Foundation and the End of Netscape Up until this point, mozilla.org has produced builds of Mozilla for development and testing purposes only, with end-users encouraged to download distributions from vendors such as Netscape. However, the new Mozilla Foundation plans to target end-users directly. The beginnings of this strategy can be seen with the redesign of the mozilla.org front page.
