for 2, place two box with small text size and comma list all user names accordingly.
for 3, combine 1 and 2 and simple template if condition.

I'd like to throw my vote in the hat for at least option 1 above.

Something below the signature that read something like:

The following 4 users found this post helpful: George, Sue, Pat, Rich

With linkable usernames.

One of the collateral benefits of a Thanking or Helpful Answers system is the useless "I agree with you completely" post. It allows for more focused answers rather than a Ditto. Furthermore, some of my users use the Post Thanks hack to let people know that they read their post about some event in their lives and are happy for them.

I want to Thank You for this very useful addon and don't want to seem ungrateful for the suggestion. I'll use it either way but I'd like to de-anonymize the helpful feature for many reasons (Admin selected). It would be great to be able to go into a profile of a member you trust and just search for the posts they find helpful.
