i frequently use my gmail address with a +whatever suffix to help with filtering. (e.g. hello+whatever@gmail.com will still send to hello@gmail.com but i can filter by hello+whatever@gmail.com to give it a certain label)

i've run into issues on gitlabhq where an account with such an email address

- can add keys, but gitlabhq/gitolite does not seem to use them
- ... thus i'm unable to clone repositories/projects that i've explicitly added such a user to
- gitlabhq is unable to delete them

i apologize that this is a very high-level bug request. to reproduce:

1. install latest gitlabhq
2. create a user with a + in the email address
3. login as this new user
4. add ssh public key to account
5. add user to a project with at least read/pull access
6. attempt to clone that project.
