odd idea. Is it based on an attempt to humanise the police force in the public's minds or something?

Thought they'd be against that. Thought ideas of efficiency put uniform ahead of the individual or something. Like group as unit not individual drones.

Also thought the idea/concept of there being a law enforcement service relied on a level of abstraction, separating the law enforcing individual/institution from normal society. Which is one reason why privateised prisons are questionable. If the individual/personal is applied it undermines that abstraction that allows the concept to work. Traditionally you're being arrested by a uniform that is instituted to perform a certain function that oils the cogs of society, once this uniform is reduced/morphed into an individual it alters the interface.
Wonder if it'll lead to more resisting of arrest, since the person who's arresting you is brought down to a similar level as the arrestee?
