I don't see the point of this.

Personally when people contact the directly (and this happens often)
for help/bugs/patches etc I either delete the message or point them to
the mailing lists / bugzilla. I hardly ever reply with an actual
answer.

With those lists it is obvious personal contact will happen more
often; something I and a lot of other devs don't want. That is the
whole reason we always use ml or bugrackers: not only the code but
also communication is open.
