Block only available after mutual following?
It appears that for the past few weeks, possibly since the Twitter UI change, the block link has disappeared from users profiles.
At first I thought maybe if I followed the person I want to block, that the link would then show up, but this is not the case either:
The link will only show up for users which I have a mutual following relationship with.
As a temporary fix I have been initiating the blocks manually (http://twitter.com/blocks/confirm/xxxxxx), but this is quite annoying.
Anybody else experiencing this?
Btw, regarding blocks, a suggestion would be to show me when I have blocked a user, once I visit their profile page. ;)

Inappropriate?Thanks for your manual hack tip (even though it's not the easiest way), which will help all who sorely need a Block button so that they can block unwelcome users even when there's no following relationship.

I guess I should have also mentioned that you will have to enter the user's number, not their username.
Easiest way to find it is at the bottom of the page, through the RSS link to their updates. -
Now that really is obscure! Thanks for the extra information :)
