If being able to identify admins is that important, we should consider
if the OTRS show-the-foundation-your-ID should be extended to normal
admins.
An admin who is doing nothing wrong wound have nothing to hide from the
Foundation. If they're editing from a situation however, where they
shouldn't be--say, work conflict of interest, personal risk, extreme
concerns for privacy--they they perhaps shouldn't be admins.
It's one thing to show your ID to "the foundation", and quite
another
to give it to all of the members of the foundation who have access to
these logs. The very fact that someone obtained and then revealed
this information about CW without permission is enough of a reason to
be concerned about one's privacy, in my opinion.
No identifying details were revealed. If an admin candidate (or anyone
else) is violating policy, they have to anticipate that they could be
found out at any time, not only when it's convenient for them.
