In case anyone's curious about how this can work in practice, Arizona started doing this a few years ago. I don't have a link handy, but as I recall, it was pretty much a nonstory. I looked it up because they'd gone with random strings of letters and digits to avoid exhaustion for decades as part of it, and those stuck out on the road.
