a) It's an exception ;)

b) that why I said you should use personblurb and explain to the reader
what all you email addresses mean.

c) Once the reader will read the document you'll have new address which
just isn't printed -- you'll always loose.

Normally, one will write a document with one and only one personality.
But you can provide extended or external links to point the reader into
the right direction to find an email address "in case".

The "common" situation is one address only.  No, the proposal is
different from current status.  Read Chris's mail.
