Using BulkRegistration, new user topics in Main do not get the email address added to the topic.
For example, given the following UnprocessedUsers table:
and running BulkRegistration
- pages are created for Main.TestUser1 and TestUser2
- First and Last name fields are correctly updated

My guess is that this is due to the following code in lib/TWiki/UI/Register.pm
# Keys from the user data that should *not* be included in
# the user topic.
my %SKIPKEYS = (
Photo => 1,
WikiName => 1,
LoginName => 1,
Password => 1,
Email => 1,
SystemGeneratedPassword => 1,
MustChangePassword => 1
);
which seems to be actively
not copying over the Email.
I don't understand is the rationale for
not copying the email address to a form that specifically has a place for the email address.
