  Well he grants them, but he keeps all his rights, like the ability to change the license to his work that is not transferable through a license but only through a FLA or such.

  Rights are only applicable to people i.e with identity. A nickname has no legal existence thus cannot have legal rights.
  https://community.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy states that commits must have commit author's names (and email).
  But I am not too sure how much we would enforce this.
