Summary: Facilitate delivery of membership lists to listowners

Initial Comment:
Seemingly, customers of hosting services that offer
MailMan have no convenient way to backup list
memberships.  list_members is generally not accessible.
 A email delivered "who" command does not deliver
addresses that are hidden.  Addresses can not be
globally un-hidden.  Web page presented membeship lists
are available only in small batches.  Possible solutions:
1) a "who" command or replacement that deliveries the
entire membershiip list
2) a, possiblly temorary, global "un-hiding" of
addresses so that "who" will supply the entire
membership list
3) a web page option that will delivery the entire list
by email or other means.

Note that there are scripts available for "screen scraping"
the admin Membership pages to get a complete list including
if desired, all the members settings except language. See
the FAQ at

I understand this isn't an implementation of the request,
but it does provide a work around.

another (in my opinion: good) idea would be the ability to
additionally extract the per-list settings of the subscribed
users (e.g. if they have set their "no-mail" flag)
