Per discussion at the posted URL, some folks would like to be able to flag
scandalous or offensive usernames (i.e. "User:[Insert admin name] is a
bloated anus") so that they do not show up on lists of users (the request is
with respect to the list of all users, but the new user creation log could
also benefit). It is apparent that some vandals get their kicks out of
making offensive names show up on such lists. Hiding this information would
deny them the motivation to engage in such activities, and would make the
pertinent lists easier and cleaner to search for info that may actually be
useful to someone.
