Lindy, it's worth mentioning that Plame isn't the one who revealed her source of employment. I agree with you that it is atrociously reckless to reveal that sort of information, but - with all due respect - it wasn't her choice. Forbidding a book, assuming that it details only those circumstances, seems like trying to close the barn after the horses have already left.
That said, Mrs. Plame seems to be abiding by her non-disclosure agreement; presumably, for this case to have even gone to court, she had to apply for permission to publish. I don't know whether she was trying to reveal confidential information that is still relevant - if that's the case, whether she did it innocently or not, the CIA and the court system made the right call.
