Contact_Name superfluous

Contact_Name superfluous
Am I correct in thinking the contact_name & contact_mail are not used when using the full login registration system.

As a logged in user, we already have:

Username:
Email:
Name:

Effectively this makes the 2 contact_* fields redundant but would be used if not requiring user registration.

I believe the contact_* fields are for sending out emails to the link owners. The 'Email' and 'Name' fields for actual users, are for sending out site specific emails, i.e ones that are not associated with the links themselves.
