In the legacy BzAPI, history.changer is a full email address (account name) even when without auth, though other fields don't expose it.

Actually the native REST API or Web Service exposes full email addresses everywhere even when without auth, so I don't know why only BzAPI has such a limitation, but this bug is all about compatibility.

There are some inconsistencies in the BzAPI that I am having to work around and that will be one I will need to add a fix for as well. Other emails are filtered if not logged in whereas the full email id displayed for history data. Will work on a patch.

Yeah that is because we have email filtering turned off currently for webservices so all native REST API calls will show full email when logged out.
