Hence the option to turn it on and off.

I can't understand why good ideas are never put into practice around here, seriously.

1) That statement is categorically false, mainly because you said never, and even "usually" would still be untrue
2) Good ideas are evaluated on risks versus rewards, and implemented on that basis
3) Good ideas are also evaluated for feasibility, another reason for implementation

Frankly the effort that this will require is not worth the reward. Such information is suitable for a usertitle or a signature or even the profile bio it certainly does not require bespoke methods of implementation.

what about users that have been here a long time? i can only remember one username before my current one...

Ask us nicely and we may tell you but bare in mine records only go back as far as 2008.

If you can't remember your previous usernames I think it is a clear indication that you changed your username far too frequently.

Unless my memory is failing me they go back quite a ways more than that. I believe MAD started a second name change thread which is what you're referring to, but there is an earlier name change thread that is probably in the same forum. I believe I became VIP Manager earlier than 2008 and I'm almost 100% certain that logging it was part of the job when I came on board.

I am happy to add a profile field for this as really that is all it is worth which also makes it optional for those who do not want their names revealed.

If you would like to know your previous names then we have no problem telling you, you will just need to drop an administrator a PM.
