From what I can see, I think at least some of the people who don't like the idea, don't like it because of LL's track record. That's why *I'm* not terribly excited one way or the other, anyway. Yes, a list of "safe" viewers is a good idea, as is banning people who do things against the ToS.
What's not good is the very high potential for such a thing to be handled badly, such as banning an innocent user whose viewer gets targeted unfairly, such as in the case of a bad viewer spoofing itself as a good one, leading to the good one getting black listed. In the past, LL has not been very good at handling such serious and delicate matters (traffic bots, gambling, sexual ageplay, and other banned things are still around, for instance), so a lot of people are cynical about future improvement.
