I think this should be in the stickies, for better exposure. Wonder why it's not there yet.
It would be useful as the account security is a fundamental issue of the forum. Even if it is not going to be in the stickies, I plan to continue to bump the thread and hope more forum members become aware of how to improve their account security.
Theymos mentioned recently that he's not complete opposed to delegating more responsibilities onto others for account recoveries. I imagine he would have to make sure that they were capable of it, but I'm sure hilariousandco and the like would be more than capable of it.
hilariousandco would be one the most natural candidates. He already has a permission to unlock accounts as well. I am sure LoyceV is also capable of it as he has been helping recovery of hacked accounts and made key contributions for several cases to be resolved.
