For beginning it's definitely not needed to be compulsory. Whether the communities will want to have this function reliable in future if it became a standard or not is up to them. I don't really like idea of enforcing anyone to anything, but it should be recommended at least to each bot developer to use it in case it would work and people would like it.

In addition, we would have a reliable list of bots running on each wiki, far better than what we have for example on english wiki now.
This needs to make compulsory in each wiki's bot policy to use this facility, does it not?
