I mean, pretending to be someone in another instance, “stealing” the username, is trivial. I see the more likely targets being instance admins or high profile users. Should we worry somewhat about this?

I think showing something like
DisplayName (@username@instance)
if they have a display name would make sense… honestly I would like to disable showing display name entirely (didn’t need it on that other site, never found it useful on twitter/mastodon/etc), but understand that would may be a less popular option.
