Ken
I like to know who it is
But I don't like to think of it becoming a burden for you
Loose control with collective back-up, as you suggest, seems a fair 
compromise

How do other people feel about bogus names?

I could add a statement in the group description along the lines
suggested by Manu.

Someone can just make up a name and I cannot check on everyone.
However, I could deny posting privileges to any obviously fake name
and then for names that seem possibly real, I could let them go unless
somebody emails me letting me know the name is fake.

This will not be perfect but will go a long way towards responding to
Oliver's concerns.
