Yeah, yours is much simpler because Mail::Address doesn't have an import
method, which is the entire complexity in the Error.pm wrapper.
I'll probably submit a wrapper-for-the-wrappers patch at some point
after this gets in, i.e. both of these would become:
package Git::Error;
use Git::WrapCPAN 'Error';
1;
package Git::Mail::Address;
use Git::WrapCPAN 'Mail::Address';
1;
Then the Git::WrapCPAN package would do all the magic the Git::Error
wrapper is doing now, but with a configurable package.
But this doesn't have to wait for that.

Some notes on your patch:
* If I comment out your whole eval/or-do I was puzzled because tests
still pass, turns out the eval { require Email::Valid } will bring in
Mail::Address from CPAN.
Not a bug, just something to note for others poking at this.
* You didn't update t/t9000/test.pl to use the wrapper, which I thought
was a bug until I realized this is built on top of
gitster/mm/send-email-fallback-to-local-mail-address.
