i agree with Chris' approach - it's no different than the 'no
facelights' option. they bother some common users but are quite useful
in machinima and virtual photography. it's the responsibility of the
grid operator(s) to enable/disable popular features.
also, not everyone is confused or frustrated by display names and not
everyone abuses them. they definitely have a function and a place, even
in OpenSim (eventually). keep in mind, we're using SL as a reference
point here... the rest of that thought should be self-explanatory ;)
more valuable than a personal opinion about a feature would be some sort
of documentation illustrating any caveats users/administrators should be
made aware of in the interest of community education.

Just my two cents ... But I believe a simple solution for that would
be to have a line like EnableDisplayNames somewhere in OpenSim.ini to
enable and disable use of it (if it were to be implemented). If you
don't prefer to implement Display Names on your grid then set it to
false.
Just speculations of course =)

May I respectfully ask what gives you the right to determine how
others should set their display names, and whether what they choose
to do is right or wrong? Even if people do use it in a way that we
might wish were different, why shouldn't we have the feature and the
ability to set it as we choose, regardless of how others use it?
SImple reason I dont like it peronal.
Viewers use screen names first. and that makes the list terrible.
If the fix that i dont see any problem at all. screen names last.
Because screen names its hard to find somebody back with all the
character abuse inside.
