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.

When you start a proposal by using as an example a country whose Human Rights record is appalling, you may not be making the argument you think you are…

Vietnam’s human rights record remains dire in virtually all areas. The ruling Communist Party maintains a monopoly on political power and allows no challenge to its leadership. Basic rights are severely restricted, including freedoms of speech and the media, public assembly, association, and conscience and religion.
