> This wouldn't be 100% perfect -- maybe a really determined ID thief could get the DMV to issue them an ID in someone else's name

This is much more common than you might think. I believe in Illinois there was some sort of ongoing problem with people at the DMV selling licenses to truckers who didn't actually pass their tests[0]. I'm sure any criminal with a wad of cash could get them to make a fake ID.
