Currently email addresses are "sorta" open on patch-tag.

You have to log in to get the email of a repo owner to request joining
a repo, however when browsing repo history the email displays to show
who did the commit.

Github has emails pretty much visible everywhere.

I feel like pach-tag should not have a split personality about this,
and either show users' emails or hide them everywhere unless logged
in.

Anybody have any strong opinions on this?

I am leaning towards just-show-everywhere. But there if there are a
lot of shy users...?

Given the efficiency o spam filters these data, show-everywhere seems  
a valid way to do it.
