Agreed, that kind of obfuscation is often more annoying than it is helpful,
and I think this is one such case.

I also object to it out of principle -- I don't want to add gross hacks all
over the place because of idiots like spammers, and I find that conventional
spam filtering seems to work well enough that it's not really necessary (I've
_never_ obfuscated my email address, and have been using the same widely
exposed address many many years, but spam is nothing more than a minor
background irritation).
