badusers serves a completely different purpose. As for log_badlogins:
1. It was created before post-auth functionality was added in rlm_sql
2. It's able to store records in the radacct table in a convenient 
format for dialupadmin to show bad logins
3. It's able of sending bad login information to other sql servers using 
a buffer file, which is convenient to keep bad login information within 
a replicated infrastructure.

Having a freeradius attribute Reject-Reson which could hold values such 
as Multiple-Login,Invaling-User,Outside-Timestamp and freeradius setting 
it on reject would be a step forward though.
