Charming idea, but there may be unintended consequences. 

What if you need to cut the lock on your own bike? I have done that 
occasionally when the locking mechanism is hopelessly jammed or frozen? My 
locks are cables -- my bike isn't expensive enough to require a full-fledged 
U-lock, but I could imagine being in the same predicament with a U-lock. 

What if some idiot locks his bike to your bike and never returns? 

What would the city do when they need to remove abandoned bikes from public 
racks? We could end up with a bunch of smelly, nauseated Streets employees.
