as soon as I start typing the suggestive list displays users and their email addresses from other projects. This is a big security concern since we’re not to keen on having our clients know that we also work with their competitors.

Accidentally adding people to a board that are not a part of the team jeopardizes infosec at my company and would shut down usage of Asana very quickly.
