This is the same idea I discussed here a month ago which I brought up with the 
exact same vision. As I said then, we don't need
such a feature client-side in order to allow anonymous logins. Grids could 
enable
so called "guest logins" which would allow one to login with any first
name they want and a grid chosen last name that would be used for anonymous 
users (eg: Guest, Anonymous, Unregistered) and of course no
password. So to anon login, you would just use the names
AnyNameIWantHere Guest with no password, and if the grid allows be there as a 
guest. This feature is not yet
implemented for grid mode as far as I know but could be very useful. Guess this 
is +2 for the feature for now.

One of the recurring themes is a suggestion that we encourage "anon" logins in 
the standalone and grid logic.

This would allow "guests" to logon and perhaps have a certain limited set of 
abilities. That is, to walk, chat, fly at a minimum, but not to be able to 
'take', 'edit', or perhaps limit teleports beyond the login region.

Anyway, I open this mini "Pandora's Box" to see if this is something that 
should be put on the list.
