" I also dislike that it doesn't force job posters to disclose salary expectations before hand -- this is inefficient."
No, it's fair. I'm a fairly talented programmer and if I sense any bullshit tactics based on information assymetry I'm not interested on your offer.
This is the first advice professionals who have no experience of salary negotiations get: don't say the first price, unless you know what you are doing.
That you explicitly expect them to brake this rule does not speak well of your approach to the process.
Of course, there can be some local customs and practices I'm not familiar with.

Ah, my bad, my apologies. Sadly I can't delete my earlier comment so I'll leave it there for posterity to document my inability in reading comprehension.
