I'm not sure you fully understood what I meant. To clarify:

Imagine a special tag, put in the nick in raw form, and parsed by the client each time the name is actually displayed i.e.
      On server: <blah1> [tag] <blah2>
      On client screen: <blah1> <rand#> <blah2>

My guess is it'll be on the difficult side to implement.
