The common term for this view is a 'nested' view and it is used by a lot of discussion systems (Slashdot being the most visible).

The way I've seen this implemented is unfortunately very different from the current FUDForum layout: all user info is hidden in the user info page and only the username and a few other details are provided for each post, in the subject row.

The described layout solves the 'will it line up' issue by simply avoiding any need to line up columns.

I believe it could be successfully implemented though it would dramatically change the interface. Luckily it would only be one option of several for users to choose how to read posts, and an extremely viable option IMO.
