I don't know, I think I'd be using it for every "AzZmASSterD" I
saw.  That list could get up into the hundreds pretty easily with
the games around nowadays.  I think it'd be neat if the next
generation MMORPG allowed unlimited use of this feature(maybe
storing names locally, unless the admins really have a problem
with people trading lists) and allow random generation of new
labels.  Then I could just highlight a name that is offensive,
out of fiction, etc and change it myself or click Generate and it
comes with an appropriate fantasy name(plenty of generators out
there).
