That's true, but I would say: so what?
Is it really a problem to get some knowledge about who is not delegating to
you? Of course ideally one would prefer not to know but I see no strong
objection from a secruity / vote pressure point of view (it doesn't mean there
aren't).
That's a good question. I haven't thought about those kind of issues.
Delegation is much more complicated than I thought, even for this
"simple" case. ;-)
