It's ready for merge if you are ok!

```js
Parse.Cloud.define('updateEmail', async (req) => {
req.user.set('email', req.params.email);
await req.user.save(null, { useMasterKey: true });

Wouldn't it be best practice to avoid any operation using useMasterKey: true but instead give only the user write permission in the object ACL? This would mitigate the risk that through a developer mistake in code someone could execute operations because they are using the master key; instead any permission would be bound to the user's session token. Using useMasterKey: true should only be necessary if the object is locked even for the user with read/write limited to master key.
