I like the report link idea.
Everyone would probably report their own negatives, thinking they don't deserve them... 
I was thinking about making a page for admins that lists all the latest reputation votes, making it easier to spot the dodgy ones and moderate them.
I think the main issue is making the people with the power to delete reps (admins) aware of the dodgy reps. We certainly don't have time to check out every member's votes every day, so that one page with all the latest votes would be easier to work with.
Giving such a visible button to report reps isn't a good idea, not even if you can only report reps given to others...people would go around reporting everything they do not like, giving the admins a huge workload. Also it will cause anger amongst members, if you like a rep given to you and someone reports it wouldn't you like to know who reported it?
Your idea WDZ sounds good to me, view latest reps and mod if need be to admin discretion is the best option.
It has been tried to explain to people (able to give reps) what the reputationsystem is for, and yet they do not listen..so yah, other actions will be needed unfortunately.
I still like the reputationsystem, pos or neg vote it says something about you..if not about the one giving you the rep
It just should be used more wisely.
