Lots of people have signed up as founders with ideas and added their e-mail as alpha users - do both sides, we encourage it! On a meta product design level, we wanted to keep the submission barrier a tad higher than that for alpha users. Alpha users are pretty busy and we don't really need to have them do submission revisions, so no need for passwords or logins there. We've already seen founders submit their ideas, then come in and revise (over and over again).
