Thanks for linking me to this. From a high level it sounds pretty reasonable. The private sector likely wouldn't be able to implement an in-person verifying service at a national scale.

This sounds like it would be well suited to being provided by the postal service

  This an option the German postal service provides. It works quite well. There are different levels of identity verfication available, and employees are able to complete the lower levels at your door. An personal example I had a few years ago was signing a cellphone contract online. The postal employee delivered the sim card after verifying my identiy at the door (you can't get phone contracts without ID around here). For the higher levels one has to go to the postal office, and it includes a bit more paperwork. These are only used for higher sums, mine was for a bigger leasing contract for my company.

  Using USPS's normal services, mailing etc, is difficult for me at least now because of hours. Its ooen from 8:30 to 5:00 on weekdays, & I have to run in my lunch to get something done, or otherwise have to wait for saturday. Would love it to shift an hour morning or evening, like 7 to 4, or 9 to 6 or something. With this suggested in-person verification, it will be more important than ever.
