I worry slightly about bloating the symbol table and increasing link
times, but
perhaps I shouldn't. You can make this change pretty easily - see the
Outputable instance for Name in the Name module.
Actually, that won't work without adding the Module to Internal Names,
will it? Or is there a way to find the module from it somehow?
Yes, that's a fine point. I take it back - it's not very easy to do this after
all.

I don't think this affects stripping out the local symbols. Whether a symbol is
local or not is a property of the symbol, not its name.

Yes, it would be better if it was optional.
