I would think that their insurance carrier would expect the FBO to have
some system in place to assure that the people they rent to are legal and
qualified to fly the aircraft that are being rented.

Agreed. The question is how intrusive that system ought to be. It would
be simple to subvert anything that's not intrusive. OTOH I've run into
places that want a copy of my driver license, pilot certificate, medical
certificate, logbook, and my SSN before renting.

I would think that a copy of your certificates both pilot & medical along
with the log book ought to be OK. Since there isn't a photo on any of those
I can understand getting the DL. But I can see no reason for the SSN.
