I (and many others as far as I know) don't think we should get rid of
that possibility. But as far as I understood it it's all about *being
able to hide votes*, not defaulting to anonymising votes.
During the CoC-Discussion the idea came up to vote certain CoC-issues
(call them whatever you like) in a more secure way so that no one sould
be able to bully someone into an - for him or her - inappropriate
decission. One way to do so could be a somehow anonymised vote.
So I think we have to distinguish between technical votes on what way
the language itself develops (which should always be open and as
transparent as possible) and non-technical votes (which can be very
personal and should therefore respect the privacy of the voter).
Cheers
Andreas
