That particular kind of transparency could be abused by angry users or even hate groups. If they know who downvoated them, they might decide a nice downvoat brigade would make sure that user paid for their perceived transgression.
Aside from that, people who keep the new queue clean of spam would have to comment on every piece of garbage they downvoated. I don't think that would be a good idea either.
