Well, it's the plan you are advocating, but you haven't addressed the question which is fundamental to that plan.

So you want certain groups of people to be protected from comments that most of us will not be protected from. The elephant in your room is that unless those minority groups are labelled, we won't know who we have to treat more carefully than those people that we speak to in a normal way. We can't be expected to treat some people more gently if we don't know who they are.

For that reason, it won't work as you have described it, but the whole thing stinks anyway, so it will not come about.
