[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Get user e-mail permission in OAuth login (#2011)

[Harel M]

Often users do not want to register on every site that their using, but let's put this aside.
Assuming I create a registration page on my site I would like to be able to reduce the need from my user who just placed his user name and password on OSM to rewrite their e-mail address in my registration form.
In other words, I can't have an easy registration form due to this limitation.
Other OAuth providers usually allow this option - it is up to the user to decide if he would like to give me his e-mail whether it's by the permissions or by writing it down.
I don't understand this legal and reputation stuff, this is a very weak argument, IMHO.
