[Mailman-Users] User accounts instead of EMail addresses

Here is an idea which suddenly stuck me because many users have more
then one email account or they frequently change their account: How
about giving them a Mailman "account" which contains an EMail address
to which to send mails for them ?

This would make a lot of things more simple, for example changing ones own
address: Just log in into your "account", change the EMail address in
there and you're set (after replying to the usual check mail).

It would also allow to manage more then one list at the same time (the
user could say that he wants all lists he is subscribed to, to be delivered
to this account), so only a single password to remember.
