This is a good point. To date I have not had an anonymous survey in a small group that hasn't bitten me in the ass afterwards.
I also find some anonymous surveys interesting when they are placed in my mailbox and come with a unique identification number. When asking about this uid, I am always told it is for quality control purposes or such. Yeah right.
Anyway, the proposed idea is interesting. I could see it being abused though. Someone from management, A, who wants to know what you really think of them could set up a fake discussion using several other sign ins from coworkers B C and D (and of course management has their passwords, that's required per the corporate contract), puppets who then ask "What do you think of boss A?" followed by puppet accounts B-D saying A is a jerk and then listening to see your response. This is the sort of thing that happens with the sort of jock management that infects many workplaces.
