That's why I oppose it. Nameplates would likely allow hooks which could perma mark someone, allowing players to continually spot them from far away. These hooks could be used for chat bubbles, which is good, but I'm not convinced. They would have to be completely disabled in PvP zones.
The other reason I don't like the idea is because it will start to look like "that other game".
