EDIT: Oh nevermind I missed the part where you covered that. It would solve your problem though, and your only reason for not doing it is laziness. My suggestions: Make your font smaller or limit nicknames.
Reducing font size could work, however that's still a lot of names - in response to laziness, do you really think I want to be right clicking people figuring out who they are so if they're a buddy that happens to have the same color nick as a gang member during a raid so I don't shoot them?

That's what raids boil down to in a lot of cases - precious seconds where you have to do what you can and get cover/get control of an area - not precious seconds where you right click everyone in the room to figure out who's in BB and who's your 3 friends that have black nicknames.

That's why I'm suggesting this - I can live with limiting length of nicknames, but if someone can do something to make this more convenient - then I'm going to suggest it and I'm going to push for it to be made more convenient.

Edit: and It's not like its hard to do - the symbol one is just a few lines in a script placing an image above a player's head and taking it away when they put on or take off their gang tag.
