Not an ideal implementation, especially since javascript

every user.
Anyone else see value in such a MAGICWORD implementation?

For the last time, it's not that nobody sees value in it,
it's that it simply cannot be implemented without almost
completely losing the performance benefits due to caching.
That's complete nonsense, though. There are numerous ways to
implement this without having any impact whatsoever on performance.
Maybe the most straightforward solution would impact performance, but
that doesn't mean "it simply cannot be implemented".
Think about it for half a millisecond. You already put the username
at the top of the page (next to "my talk"). How is that done? Either
you've figured out how to cache part of the content while keeping
another part dynamic, or you don't cache logged in users anyway.
