Sounds like a good idea to me. If people are prepared to do/say something on the interbet, they should be prepared to explain why they did it and face the consequences and I will be mentioning this when I am next in contact with Ofcom. They will no longer be able to hide behind some silly made up name, instead they will be personally identifiable and connected to any inappropriate behaviour.

When their reputation, education/employment opportunities are at stake, i'm sure that their behaviour will improve dramatically.
Be careful what you wish for, because you'd be required to follow the same signing up requirements so stuff you say could back to haunt you too. And let's face it, you've got form for the odd bit of unpopular (outspoken?) posting too. Just saying.
