Totally unaware of the preceding considerations, I'm a little puzzled by
this discussion. Based on what I have read in this thread, I'd vote for
dropping the whitelist whether the issue is major or not. Personally I
have noticed that mail-notification is broken in Unity, which is enough
of a reason for me to keep using Classic for now when not needing Unity
for developing tests.

If the feature can be provided, without a price in the form of e.g.
extra maintenance time, is there a good reason for disabling it? Closing
the door prematurely on the users and developers concerned seems not
right to me.
