I'm not against looking into this. It would provide additional security for the account, however it still wouldn't provide the account ownership protections. We will think about this some more.

Use gmail. Anything after a + is ignored by gmail. You can infinite reddit accounts associated with one email. Eg example@gmail.com, example+redditusername@gmail.com both go to the same account.

Sadly this won't happen because it reduces Reddit's ability to track and market to you.
