I don't really think it's *that* strong of an identifier.  The cloak just 
removes your hostname on IRC and replaces it with 
'<userid>.committers.apache' when you do a 'whois' on the user in Freenode. 
I view it as fairly harmless and much less so than giving people 
@apache.org email address.  =)

BTW, we had discussed this on board@ and infrastructure@ a while ago; but 
we didn't actually add any cloaks until today.  -- justin
