Why not fall back to just the email if the full lookup fails?

Thanks; I like that suggestion a lot better.  Grant's suggestion does not
make the lookup "less fragile", but actually makes it less reliable for
people with the same address with different spellings of name and want to
choose which one to use per project.

Unless I'm mis-understanding you, the does the opposite of that.  It
finds your gpg key based on your git email, ignoring your git name, so
that different spellings of the name between gpg and git become irrelevant.
