currently a user will need to re-authenticate any time they switch between email aliases. Instead of this, during provisioning, we should check on the server if the currently authenticated user has permission to use the specified email address. This will handle the case where a user has lhilaiel@mozilla.com AND lloyd@mozilla.com and wishes to switch between the two on different sites.
I think this is a basic feature that we should have to consider alias support complete. I personally find myself flipping between users on bugzilla when I don't know which email was cc'd (granted access) to a security bug.

not a lot of code, and highly testable.
