That's what I propose to change. No restrictions or complications for those doing other CU request cases, but if someone choses to take action based on a CU done elsewhere, they are required to log it somewhere connected to WP:RFCU. Just make the RFCU page a one-stop-shop for finding the info.
No. The logs are not available because people will get having had a checkuser done at all used against them.
We've had too many zombie checkusers, where it's noted in passing in a block log note or talk page comment and there's no other on-wiki note or evidence for anyone who comes along later to figure out what happened.
The block message should be sufficient - that's what the block message is there to log. There are *lots* of open proxies, 0wnz0r3d machines or zombies being abused by our most persistent vandals. However, lots of innocents get checked along the way (because you don't know until you look). What do we gain by making a public list of their names available?
