that is perfectly within the ruleset.

I thought the reason for local users was
- get their work named or
- allow them to do review (not possible on suggestions) or
- save committers work

as you suggest I cannot see the difference to using anonymous as we have it
today ? What did I miss ?

making support for non-ldap users is no trivial task (just think of spam
protection) so clearly this effort should counter weighted  of other
advantages.
