Shouldn't the approve command override any address sanity checks? I know it
doesn't currently; I'm asking if we should fix it to make work as such.

Had a situation where 1.93 didn't catch a bogus (embedded spaces) address.
We have since upgraded to 1.94 and an attempt to correct with "approve
unzubscribe" was rejected because the given address was invalid (even
though the request was in an approve block).

Correcting these types of problems shouldn't require root access -- it
violates the whole Majordomo remote-admin philosophy...
