None at all. It looks like a good step, even: when someone extends the
system to use the users e-mail address, there still will be a system
default. And for my purpose it's perfect: I don't need to have
separate addresses for all users.

If you want me to add it, I can prepare a patch - with the right
hints, of course.

Bye,


Erik.
