Don't you see the security risk imposed by this?!
This unmasked email is equivalent to the password in this case and it is easy to manage to get it or trick a user to give it to you so obviously, the security risk vector increased.
The only thing that is needed is to find a relation between the Facebook id and this email. I know this is a hard task, but if done by someone, it will mean that someday you might see all the people on Facebook putting the same status (1), it will be a mass attack!

(1) My name.
