If everyone had a Peer to Peer optimized ISP and there was a national ID registry, it would be very easy to lookup someone via their national ID signature updated DNS entry. This could also carry other data.

I think you're distinctly overlooking the many problems that come with 'easy to look up someone'. There are already massive harassment and stalking issues for some people with decentralized platforms like Facebook, let alone a central government registry.
