Comment (by ericmann):

 I can verify this bug exists.

 Testing on WordPress 3.2-bleeding.

 1. Attempted to register user with email `t&est at eamann.com`
 1. User was registered with no visible errors
 1. Registered user is listed with email `t&ampest at eamann.com` in WordPress
 admin
 1. Mailto mousover lists `mailto:t&ampest at eamann.com` as the link
 1. Editing the user lists `t&est at eamann.com` as the email address '''<-
 This is correct!
 1. Updating the user with `t&est at eamann.com` doesn't change any of the
 above behavior
