> Interesting design decision to hide the connection's address until you send them an email.
That's not what the article says. It says that it hides your email address until you send the connection an email (and, conversely, hides the connections email address until they send you an email):
Quote: The good news is that your email address isn’t visible to a Google+ connection unless you send him or her an email. The reverse is also true: his or her email address isn’t visible to you unless he or she sends you an email.

So that includes people who have me in their circles or the ones I have in my circle?
If you take a look at the screenshot, you can see that it's tunable: http://cdn1.tnwcdn.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2014/01/...
"Anyone on Google+", "Extended Circles", "Circles", and "No One".

Can someone who already has the feature tell us what its default setting is?
...Please let it at least be "Circles".
But does Google know which ones have restraining orders against you?

If someone has a restraining order against you, you probably shouldn't have them in your circles in the first place (you also should pay attention to who you send emails to, either way).
The mixing of professional and personal is quite dangerous.

I wonder how it interacts with "undo send" …
