This suggestion sounds like a way to create new and far bigger problems without doing anything to solve the original problem.
Let's keep the problem in perspective, shall we? You want to freely access code contributed by someone over the internet, and you want to trust it's provenance. This does not change at all if you throw government-issued IDs into the mix, nor does this affect any of the attack vectors exploited by bad actors.
