RCN in the northeast US does exactly this. Personally I was happy (when I was in charge of such things) to instruct the modem to recognise one MAC and allow that MAC (and only that MAC) access to the unilink. Of course, if the user wanted to switch computers, use a new NIC, etc. all they had to do was reboot the modem.
