I’ve been using the [Copy Invite Link](https://meta.discourse.org/t/copy-invite-link-link/32648) features for invites primarily because I find it a lot more natural to personally craft a message to people who I am inviting to a topic (especially people who are not yet users).
Recently, I was typing up an email and when I added the link, I was kindly prompted by Gmail to test the URL:
The dialog in Discourse states that the “Invite link is only valid for this email address”:

Unfortunately, after clicking it, even though I was already logged in as myself, it appeared to immediately accept the invitation.
If a user is already logged in who is not the one who created the invite it could instead display a warning dialog saying something to the effect of “oops, looks like you are attempting to accept an invitation for another user. If you are not [logged in user], please log out and try again?”

👍 Small nitpick. Seems like that `?` at the end be a `.` instead.
