While I would love to see the option of hidden email addresses be 
removed as trust me it's not helpful when I need to contact people in 
teams, many people will object. There are many people nowadays who wish 
to remain hidden but still active in other areas where they can be found 
but do not want their email address disclosed, one such team that has a 
lot of members like this would be Ubuntu Women .
