Extend to the 'Contact Us' page?

As title, I think it would be awesome if this could be added on the core 'Contact Us' page. I know a lot of Admin are having issues with spam coming from it so this would really help. :)

Last I checked this was not possible because there weren't any events available.
I also believe this should just be added to phpBB as default functionality.

Ah OK. And I agree, I've not had a single spammer on any of my sites using this method so far.

The reasoning of not adding the captcha to phpBB was that if people are having problems with the captcha, they should be able to contact the board admin (without facing the captcha again)
I think it would be nice if you could select a different captcha for the contact page.
