I think you're going overboard Eric.
You'll find several company addresses, some with names, in MAINTAINERS.

for instance:
$ grep M:.*support MAINTAINERS 
M:	support at lsi.com
M:	Vincent Sanders <support at simtec.co.uk>
M:	Vincent Sanders <support at simtec.co.uk>
M:	Matthias Bruestle and Harald Welte <support at reiner-sct.com>
M:	Support Department <support at connecttech.com>

Some others:
M:	STEricsson <STEricsson_nomadik_linux at list.st.com>
M:	"Digi International, Inc" <Eng.Linux at digi.com>
M:	HighPoint Linux Team <linux at highpoint-tech.com>
M:	Intel Linux Wireless <ilw at linux.intel.com>
M:	linux-wimax at intel.com
M:	linux390 at de.ibm.com
M:	linux-driver at qlogic.com
M:	Solarflare linux maintainers <linux-net-drivers at solarflare.com>
M:	davinci-linux-open-source at linux.davincidsp.com

Would you prefer that broadcom go the way of intel with the
ipw2x00 or just have a faceless "linux-support at broadcom.com"?

Not me.

Welcome JD.
