Can you give more details about the security aspect? Currently users can still search sks key servers by names, with Lynx... :-) As understood key server operators can still give a whole dump to 3rd parties, which like to analyze the data, or third parties run their own key server and analyze the data. So what purpose should your suggestion serve? If you are talking about GDPR issues, those keys server operators are not "licensed" by governmental institutions and run their servers according to some strict regulations.
