I never suggested that we work around laziness, people should absolutely
configure their system properly (I personally think violators should be
punished with regular kernel panics, but I don't think Linus will accept my
patch).
I'm just trying to give default values that conform to what a user expects
to see: if they added a real name on account creation then it should show
up wherever a real name is needed, if they set the EMAIL environment
variable then software should assume that's the user's email and use it.
Those are both recommended by the wiki too.
And if they set PACKAGER it leaks into makepkg just the same, but better?

The system usually has enough information in various places to guess
the name and email of the person running the makepkg script. Use these

relatively good guess that's compatible with other programs
(i.e. git).

This returns a pile of shit on my system.... We are not going to work
around laziness.
