give users a <email address hidden> forwarding email address

[Richard Hansen]

It'd be nice if each launchpad account came with a <email address hidden> email address that forwarded to their provided email address.

This would provide:
  * additional privacy (PGP key email address, changelog email address in submitted debdiffs, etc.)
  * greater email permanence (good for changelogs)
  * possibility for abuse by spammers

To reduce spam problems, perhaps only launchpad itself would be allowed to send messages to the <email address hidden> email. That would limit its usefulness, however.

[Robert Collins (lifeless)]

I'd be very cautious about doing this; such accounts generally offer very little use (considering, for instance, the source forge users ones).
