Implementing BIP32-style hierarchical SINs would be a fantastic mechanism for creating many identities, but controlled by one individual.

Agreed. This should work nearly out of the box with BIP32. You just need to store one extra piece of information alongside the master private key - the chain code. This "master extended private key" can be used to derive a hierarchy of new SINs.
