Hum, users asked to be specifically able to have preformatted
entries. For instance, some software include in their interface a link
to their bug tracker prefilling some fields (like system or
whatever). I think it is safe and handy ; in the case of the email
adress, we'll still have the risk of spamming people.

I think that I remember know why we decided not to link the originator
email to notification :) 
In fact, the point was : if someone wants to be notified, he has to
create an account. He can leave his address if he wants but that's not
the preferred way - if we allow non logged in user to generate CC, we
allow spam in some way.

So the point is now: how comes that even I forgot about that. I should
definitely be wrote down and explained to users. What is the content
of the infobubble of the field?
