Add developer contact email field to add-on store template #8335

Description

@Qchristensen

Issue:

There is currently no consistently used method by add-on authors to provide contact details for queries from users. Some include them in the author / publisher field, often as:

Name Email address

Some provide details in the documentation or in a screen provided by the add-on.

Some don't have easily findable contact information, or only a GitHub page for the source code.

Solution proposed:

An author contact field, ideally which allows multiple email addresses for add-ons developed by a group.

Proposal by @seanbudd during internal discussion:

  • add-on manifest field called "contactEmails" that is optional, and takes a list of emails
  • making that field mandatory and a minimum of 1 when submitting to the add-on store
  • leave it optional for external add-ons
