Thanks Rob, that's what I figured and I agree that in the core we wouldn't want it set by default but, wouldn't you agree it would be nice to have it as a flag?
In any case, were would I make the change to make it a requirement?

All I know is I do $wgEnableEmail=$wgEnableUserEmail=$wgAllowRealName=false; to protect users _against_ leaving their real names and addresses in my politically sensitive http://radioscanningtw.jidanni.org/ , assuming that it might be tapped/eavesdropped/confiscated by the authorities one day.
Great, waste his time by posting the complete anti-solution to his
question?
With respect *to the question*, it's not possible out of the box, although you could fairly easily hack the code so that form submission required entry of a real name. This isn't necessarily something we'd want in core, however.
