I don't have any constructive feedback that hasn't already been mentioned, but I am very pleased to see solutions being considered! And I'm curious as to whether whatever gets put into place for username squatting will affect obviously inactive accounts with "popular" names that might not have been taken in a mass grab. Say for instance, someone has two or three accounts registered from when the site first opened, that have never been updated, never been customised or had icons uploaded, and only have the default DW subscriptions. Will these eventually be deemed inactive and purged, and would it be under the username squatting policy, or just a more general inactive account policy? Two or three empty accounts doesn't look like "squatting" as such, but if they're all variations of one another and all empty from back in the days of closed beta, I don't really know what else I'd call it.

(And yes, I ask mainly because I have a currently unused RP journal that I worry about, but also because there's an empty journal with a username I'd love to rename this journal to, and I'm curious as to whether would ever be purged and how/why.)
