For one, Jesus H. Christ, use uuid.uuid4() for your random stuff, that random.randint(0, 100000000000) is killing the pythonista in me.
My question beside that is: what is gained from having the server generate addresses? It's going to get rid of vanity addresses is all, and correct me if I'm wrong (which I probably am) but couldn't you generated a BitCoin vanity address in the same way you can generate a vanity Tor onion: bruteforcing those motherfuckers.
This just seems irritating.

This would likely encourage brute forcing to generate vanity addresses.

Agreed. This is more hassle than its worth, imo.
