My initial though was that you could use something like this to have a
part of the internet transparently only accessible to people you trust.
Then again, if the group is large enough someone is going to misuse it
and then you want to know who it was. So you're right this won't work.
But I can think of at least two groups that do want to have a separate
part of the internet without knowing ones true identity. One will make
the world a less safe place and the other will make it a less happy place.
In conclusion: AFAIAC this leaves the set of useful and desirable
applications of this protocol empty. So I guess somebody will implement
something like this.
