Well, you know how it is...

This is precisely why I agree with you in removing infinite heathfire spawns. But if it cost five dreams (and other random forageable or whatever materials) per one use spawn structure, then it would be very difficult to abusively create massive amounts of alts near other people, due to how difficult it is to obtain dreams. A chain of alts laden with inventories of dreams could possibly be used for abuse, but it's a lot easier to defend than having one alt's hearthfire spawn 500 alts in a matter of minutes.
The cooldown idea also could work nicely, but you do have the exponential growth of spawnability if the cooldown is relatively short, or a barrier for larger groups if it's long (arguably not an issue?).
