While Valve sits and doesn't add this, someone more proficient with plugins 
could write something that does this:
 - Catch named/described items
 - Create an item with the same characteristics as those items
 - Remove the named/described items and replace with the new ones
 - If any Strange counter gets updated, send it to the GC server as if it was 
on the original weapon (this might be too complicated)

Someone could possibly write a plugin that queries the Web API for a user’s 
items and checks if any have inappropriate names. If any do, deal with the 
player accordingly.

Wouldn’t work if they have a private backpack though.

I've been tempted to see if I could add that feature to it, but Asher

This can be accomplished by removing the attribute from the items as they’re

The only thing I think would be possible is to make a plugin check the
weapons you have on the event of a weapons load out, then use tf2items to
give you that same item. That way the player still has their weapon but it
will be a regular unique one. Might be a little too intense though :P
