"If they roughly identify bots through their behaviour - e.g. the number of hours played, confinement to one location, repetitive actions or whatever gives the game away, could they not quickly confirm it by sending a message saying "Hey, enjoying the game? Could you just confirm your not a bot by answering this question, please..." "
This is exactly what Blizzard already does. Smart botters are usually somewhere near their computer and hear an audio alert when they get a /whisper from a GM or anyone else. Stupid botters will ignore these messages, and then get banned along with hundreds of others in Blizzard's periodic ban waves.
