It might be nice to explain how it is better here. I'd guess it is
because we may fail during xgetpwuid(), giving a message that is much
less informative?

I wondered on this hunk whether ident_default_email() could ever set the
IDENT_MAIL_GIVEN flag. It _does_ set it, but only for
"explicitly_given", not for "config_given", which makes sense.

So I think this is doing the right thing.
