Having this information available to all admins would likely not be any more secure than having it available. Being sensitive to privacy issues has never been a criterion for becoming an admin. On the other hand leaving this with one person could leave him overwhelmed once things start working properly. Putting this through a committee of stewards and bureaucrats could make more practical sense.
What we seem to be building towards is the idea of a central repository for confirmations of permission, managed by one or more responsible individuals at or on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. This sounds to me like the most sensible solution.
