It might work, yeah, although I'm kind of iffy about that sort of thing since the very announcement of the topic has been met by some people getting ridiculously worked up and up in arms... I sadly have to say that Discovery's community has too many people that'd just use this as an excuse to start flame wars or hatreds of one kind or the other to make it public. Possibly a thread postable in, but visible only by the admins and mods?
Just put a CTE 750 rule on posting responses to other posts? "This is only for posting about a ship you own with a Corvo ID."
People can make another thread. It gets locked and you get told to file a rule violation report if you believe someone is acting OoRP.
You'd want to make it visible so people can access who is what and it's nice to have a general run down of their RP. Although, this can be metagamed, but then again so can the chat list and a whole lot of other things.
