I think we’re all generally in favour of N email support, but the implications of supporting more than a single backup email are not immediately clear.

This is one of those arguments that is best resolved with code. Simply:

1. Do a PR for 1 backup email, which you know will get accepted without much ado (and with much ❤ )

2. _then_ we can resume the topic of N emails. If need be, do some basic mockups of how this’d work in Discourse (GitHub seems to provide a good frame of reference) before submitting a PR that adds N emails support.
