bmcclure CreditAttribution: bmcclure as a volunteer commentedThis is extremely useful! Email is sometimes the only reliable way to match up users between different systems, so having the built-in email field for users available to use as a reference greatly simplifies things.
The patch applies cleanly and works great for configuring the feed to reference a user by email. If I run into any issues while running the feed I will report back, but so far this seems great.
Thank you!

Referencing users by email simplifies things a lot when needed.
It would be great if this little patch could be merged into the module for the next release please.
Thank you for a great module!

Note that there is a similar issue to add support for even more field types, but that one hangs on getting test coverage:
