Thank you!

Are you all kidding, right ?

If you are anonymous, you don’t want to give your email. If you want to give your email, you register.

Registering is hard. It involves passwords, confirmations etc. Being able to just throw your info in and press “post” is a good thing.
This info obviously can’t be trusted (and AnsPress must not use it to send notifications), but it may be useful.

Although I don’t see why this should be in core. This is, like you said, some non-default non-obvious functionality.
It is already made easy to save non-default info into WordPress database with
$question_array = apply_filters( ‘ap_pre_insert_question’, $question_array );
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $question_array );

One who wants non-default behavior just adds new field on frontend, use this filter to save it. Done.

Is like the Guest posting on Disqus. You don’t need to register, but must enter a name and a e-mail, can be a fake one, but it have the mail field

I need the functionality like wordpress’s default comments system. no registration needed, just put your name and email and answer
