Server Players with no names

I realize that there are some international character sets that don't translate to the game very well. However, in the WebAdmin I've been seeing a lot of players with all ????? for their names. These names show up as blanks during the game for the kill messages, on the scoreboard, in voip and text chat. I'm not talking about the name with the occasional odd character, but names that contain ALL odd characters.

Deliberate? If there is more than one on the server, its impossible to tell who is who.....That lends itself to a lot of mischief.

Anyone know of any pb commands or settings we can use in the pbsv.cfg files to filter these names and warn or prevent them from joining?
