Some people are worried that it's not going to stop at the forums, and that eventually a player's real name will be visible within the game.

There have, in fact, already been known glitches in the system that have done exactly that. I recall earlier today even seeing screenshots of same. (I'll see if I can find them later if you like. this is just off the top of my head.)
Because a fatal error in the RealID system makes it so that even if you friend no one else, you automatically friend yourself. And the hackers can take advantage of that.
So the system is already compromised even as it stands. And they haven't even gotten to the point of forcing people into this.
