Comment (by dd32):

 Just noting:
  - Themes.trac permissions were previously, full emails are only shown to
 reviewers.
  - Theme Submitters can see their own email address.
  - Other users can only see start of the email address: `example-
 username at ...`
  - Themes.trac **probably** requires the email in the CC field as a
 workaround for other Trac annoyances - Without it, the reporter wouldn't
 get emails from Trac, as Trac doesn't know users email addresses unless
 they interact with Trac.

 Going forward; I think the things that needs to happen here:
 1. Themes.trac tickets need to stop adding CC's automatically.
 1. Hiding the CC field is kind of optional I think, but if we hide it, we
 have to clear the existing values.

 To do !#1 there, we need to let Trac know what a users email address is,
 the simplest way to do that would be to as part of the theme submission
 process, is to make an authenticated call to themes.trac in the context of
 the user **before** the trac ticket is created. We could also add a method
 to our custom Trac API to do it..
