Actually sysops could be just required to have the email set in the
project guidelines. If they don't do that and their account expire,
they lost the sysop. I don't see it as a big deal. I hope that sysops
are clever enough to at least be able to follow their own rules.

Also, you might want to query the databases to see how many admins
don't have an email address set. I wouldn't be surprised if there are
a few. IMO any that dont have an email set should have their sysop
bit removed.
Would it be a crazy idea to modify the software so that new admins, 'crats
etc. can be inaugurated only if they have a confirmed e-mail? While the
"unit-radius" useres can happily edit without it, this would not be a great
expectation towards "clerks".
