--- Comment #11 from Siebrand <[email protected]> ---
I think this issue may be non-resolvable. There is a problem that has not been
addressed so far: MediaWiki allows registering multiple user names with the
same e-mail address.

When this proposed feature would be active, that should not be possible, and
e-mail addresses should be exclusive.

Making e-mail addresses exclusive, would also allow one with less good
intentions to block registering an account by "someone else", by registering a
bogus account with an e-mail address of "someone else", although it would be
trivial to reset that, given that it's "someone else"'s e-mail address now,
there still may be undesirable account history.
