I don't understand why you create blank user pages. This was necessary previously to get to the talk page and contributions listing, but this is no longer the case.
Hm. Let's see: I check new user's contributions and I sometimes email them. These features are not available until their user page has been created. This also makes it possible for other people to use these features as well. BTW under Phase II edit link user names in Recent Changes allowed you to click on them and not be confronted with an edit window. This allowed the user and others to use their user contribes link without the user having an actual user page.
I really liked your ideas about building "webs of trust" though.
