Thing is, we don't have any email apps in core. It just doesn't make 
sense to have email settings in gnome-online-accounts when none of the 
core apps (the apps installed by default) actually use those settings. 
It's just going to confuse users with settings that don't do anything.

I don't really have strong opinions on the future of 
gnome-online-accounts, but unless there are major design changes along 
the lines that have been suggested in this thread, then yes, I would 
certainly advise against using it outside of the core apps.
