I'd like to +1 this. It was done for the hackathon badges in 2011 iirc
and it was great. It makes it easier for introverts (of which there is
no shortage among Wikimedians) to start conversations.
It's probably not enough (meaning it needs to be supplemented with
other mechanisms to facilitate interaction, including in smaller
groups and/or more quiet venues) but it's a good start.
