Research direction

Start by reproducing the GitHub login flow with two emails, changing the primary email between logins. Inspect the repository's Auth0 rules and hosted pages used for GitHub authentication. Done means switching the primary email returns the existing Mozillians profile instead of prompting for a new account.
