Comment:

 Look at how people have reacted to those Facebook and Twitter 3rd-party
 applications, for example, that email people's friends without their
 specifically choosing to: they feel violated and their friends, spammed.

 Without an opt-in checkbox, this would be the same kind of thing.

 Maybe as an admin I don't want a user to be able to access a development
 site right away or even to be aware that he can. Maybe I'm doing some
 initial tests logged in as a user, so I've set up the account with a pet
 password, which I've just unknowingly emailed to someone else.  Not good.
