It is possible that they don't match but they are more or less
required to though. Last i checked the bugzilla "editbugs" permissions
and the like are set from fas by email address so if the addresses
don't match up then the user won't be able to manage bugzilla properly
anyway. If the user doesn't match up then they should probably be
warned before they are sponsored so the extra request for fas along
with a warning i think is a good thing.
