Could always allow boxing during low population hours.
Personally, I don't care, I'm going necro when Kunark comes out and I'll live either way, but I can certainly understand why people who play odd hours, like I will be, would like to have the option to dual box on those off hours.
I multiboxed on live and still made every effort to group, so people saying multiboxing will ruin grouping are fairly clueless or they would realize that if people didn't want to group, they could just pick one of the other Emu servers out there and box up to dozens of toons.
I like MMOs for the interaction with real people and other than Diablo I've never really played any other game like I've played EQ and have been into them since my first one 34 years ago.
I'm guessing people are here for the nostalgia and for me pre-PoP which for me really was the best time in EQ.
To the guy who mentioned people computers not being able to handle multi boxing anyways was also pretty clueless. I was able to dual box quite easily on a Laptop with p3-700 Mhz and 768K of RAM 10 years ago and unless you're in the 3rd world, everyone has a more powerful systems who are playing now. FYI, I could box about 24-30 toons on my current machine.
Either way, I definitely wouldn't go more than dual boxing. You can make a pretty powerful 3 box set with a warrior, cleric and enchanter.
