The only problem (if I understand your definition correctly) is a
killer who (knowing the system) bashes 95% of the victims hit-points
out can then breaks off from combat and run off to do it to someone
else, leaving their victim with possibly a very long wait before
they are fit to play again (or spending lost of cash on potions to
get back in the game quickly).
By leaving it open (until the player heals) the killer has the added
worry that if the player is killed by a wandering monster (or
another player) that they are still liable to get a bounty put on
them.

Others have raised the issue of taunting and it is covered in the
latest webpage update ( http://www.futuremmorpg.org/capture.asp )

Thanks, that was the intent. It really helps to have other people
throw what-ifs at me because sometimes I'm too close to the problem
to see things.
So thanks n keep em coming :)
