I agree. Blacklisting someone should blacklist all characters on the entire account, and only show a snapshot of the name+server of the blacklisted character from the time it was added to the blacklist (this would prevent blacklist from being used as a tracking tool).

I'm not sure what other things can be done about harassment done with lvl 1 trial characters but being able to hide yourself on the lodestone before changing your name would be a sure way to prevent that.
