One thing I can do, at least it doesn't look very difficult at first glance, is 
to enable 'advanced search' on the wiki username field.  That would not involve 
any hacks or long term maintenance issues, at least in the sense that it would 
be isolated to an extension instead of patching the phabricator core.  It would 
also nicely solve the problem of finding a specific wiki user and confirming 
that they signed document X.

The 'discovery' use case that @chasemp mentioned would be better served by the 
patch that I pasted above, but as @chasemp said, it would be better if we can 
find a way to serve that use case without hacking the core.  One solution might 
be to just clone the user search code and make a separate controller+view that 
does the same thing. Although this would be duplicating the code it would avoid 
dealing with merge conflicts when upstream changes touch the code we would be 
modifying..
