I know, and I do trust the current people with checkuser rights to be careful with what they are doing and to know the consequences of their actions if they do divulge it.
However, this is no guarantee that future people who receive the ability will be as careful or as knowledgeable as you are. Call this a slippery slope argument if you like, but I'm just concerned about my personal information being dealt with in a legitimate and fair manner by all parties who have access to it. I hope you agree my concerns are valid.
