Ah I think I was confused.  So are you asking if we could provide 
notifications to users without accounts meaning the notifications aren't 
attached to an account at all?  I'm not so sure we want to do that.  We 
should encourage people to sign up to get extra features like 
notifications.  Plus its more work on the sever end and complicates things.

No its not that much more work on the server end.  The work is in 
sending the email once...repeating for a number of addresses adds a 
trivial amount of work.
