I don't think this is a mistype or accident, i think it is evil users. When applying for something that requires a human moderator to approve, the moderator often checks the name and compares it to the email address. A match gets almost automatic approval. A gmail address adds to the belief.
Therefore many users I know use a generic address that matches their name, but is not theirs, to get through the temporary gateway (content site registration, etc). (Did I mention users are evil)?
