I wonder whether those who set themself apart by breaking existing convention would appreciate to be set apart, when others too break convention.

There are many reasons for encouraging, or even enforcing, non-anonymity on a forum. Some of them are good. Ancient Convention is -- no offense -- not one of them. :)

This NG is not plagued by spam, trolls or hit'n'runs, so I see no reason to require non-anonymity.

But who knows, maybe acts of terrorism are being planned inbetween lines of D code in this very forum? (Oh no, did I just bring us to the Attention of the Authorities?)
