Description

when Email verification calling triggers the values contained in request is master = false, also user and maintenance are not defined in request, so, it'll be best to do add request.maintenance to the request in the triggers or a new key like request.emailVerification as boolean to have know if the request from email verification or not.

Research direction

Start by tracing the email-verification flow and how it invokes the beforeFind and beforeSave triggers. Check what request context those triggers currently receive; done means a trigger can reliably identify that the request came from email verification, using request.maintenance or a request.emailVerification boolean.
