Well forgetting about the minor issue that we don't have access to the real names, I don't see any reason why you couldn't build a service that given a bounding box returns a list of contributors in that area. The easy way would be to take a full history planet dump and produce a static DB of contributors from than (see Pascal Neis hdyc service) it would be a bit more tricky to keep it up date automatically but completely doable if you want to undertake the effort, more power to you.
