I was going to offer the idea of patent troll insurance, but someone's already on it: http://www.businessinsurance.com/article/20121023/NEWS07/121...

Assuming that abstract ideas are usually intersected by earlier abstract ideas (since they're so broad), perhaps the insurance company could lease the patent hordes of large companies, to deny trolls' claims. That could reduce the cost of the insurance.
