Shouldn't the root caused be fixed instead, ie we shouldn't have an empty user?

Having empty user in a document is technically possible and has been made on purpose in this case AFAIK (saving the document with a user that can't have programming right) so the autowatchlist should support it and not print an error.

How can you send a watchlist mail if you don't know the user?

What this has to do with watchlist ? No mail is sent to this user.
