 My current use case is kind of a family history website. It would be nice
 to get every family member an account, but some don't even have an email
 address and it is not necessary anyway, or is it?.

 Several workarounds have been suggested on several forums, including (A)
 fake emails, (2) the "Allow Multiple Accounts" plugin for using one email
 for all and (3) some hackery that I wouldn't want to try. ;)
