[keycloak-user] Uniqueness of user properties

[Guus der Kinderen]

Thanks for the feedback, Niels,

I am primarily concerned about the email address, but as another attribute
than the username is used to identify things, I thought I'd make sure and
include that in the question too.

At some point, my customer will probably want non-unique email addresses.
It's good to know it's at least on the roadmap.

Regards,

  Guus
