It's an interesting discussion. The Apache Software Foundation provides such vanity email addresses, mostly as forwards aliases.
It's one of the little things that probably helps forming a kind of cohesion / pride about being involved in projects at the ASF.
Perhaps Eclipse should consider evolving here as well.
We did, about 11 years ago:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=110156
The problem is that it turned into requests for mail filtering, frequent
alias updates, SPAM, and ... perhaps unique to Eclipse, some (actually,
many) of our Member companies insisted their committers use their
corporate email address (no gmail) for community recognition.
I'm not opposed to reopening the issue -- the first step is (almost
alyays) to file a bug (against Eclipse Foundation > Community > Mail)
and gather support/interest from the committer community.
