Default Profanity Filter

I like to consider myself a modern day Shakespeare (barring the times I lose my grasp of Engrish and substitute random spelling errors and other miscues in for other actual words), but I'm constantly trying to bring new words to the modern day language. Take for example if I was trying to explain in OOT a conversation I had with some punk:

"You should un[censored]tify yourself."

Now... I don't intend to circumvent the profanity filter. Instead I merely intend to express myself more openly and with greater color (But not like if I was bleck or green or whatev).

Should the profanity filter keep up with modern usage or is the burden on the individual poster to make sure that his overly expressive language has not overstepped the bounds of the archaic profanity filter?
