You're kidding, surely. What's the
"privacy" concern with sending an
email? That people will know how to communicate with you? That way
lies madness.
That people might know your real name? And possibly more information
about you? Whereas, normally we make it possible for people to use
Wikipedia pseudononymously.
Now, you may argue that pseudonymity is a bad thing. But it's a
separate argument. As long as people have that right, there's no
reason they should have to forfeit it simply to contest a block.
(and as pointed out, they could get themselves another email
address...but as I mentioned, that's a hassle)
