Until such a system is in place I have a simple hack that has worked well for me - being googlable.
When you use the same name on all social media, have a domain with it, a blog on it, and openly invite people to google you if they feel like it ... and you aren't a complete arsehat, great things happen. Things like finding a place to live in SF become relatively easy, getting jobs/work becomes simpler, hell, even Tinder works better.
We already have the trust networks in place. Why are so few people using them is a better question.
