Comment (by birgire):

 The {{{wp_parse_list()}}} would become handy here to parse a comma
 separated string into an array, ignoring white space chars and empty
 strings:

 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_parse_list/

 See also #43977.

 There's also {{{wp_parse_slug_list()}}} but that uses
 {{{sanitize_title()}}} that avoids duplicates.

 Here's an example, that additionally removes duplicates:

 {{{
 $usernames_or_email_addresses = array_unique( wp_parse_list(
 $username_or_email_for_privacy_request ) );
 }}}


 Few things that come additionally to mind:

 - Should there be a limitation, like 10 or 50? I'm not so sure this new
 feature should allow sending unlimited number of email requests at once,
 out of the box.

 - Should there be a filterable limit in place?

 - Additionally there might be email rate limitations (outside of
 WordPress) to avoid possible spam emails.
