I agree, that would be annoying.

I could understand accidentally send an email without meaning to (e.g. before
entering the content you accidentally click send) but if you do so you probably
should followup and apologise.

Yes, I can see SPAM will be a problem with Wave, for similar reasons it is a
problem for E-Mail. We can't ignore the problem, we have to deal with it.

At least with Wave, I think it should be harder to impersonate the contributors
address, unlike with E-Mail.
