I tested this scenario by creating a new Facebook account and attempting to connect it to sites without verifying my e-mail address. The Facebook dialog did not allow me to do so, explaining that I must first verify my e-mail address before connecting.

Thus, you can rely on e-mails retrieved from Facebook to be "verified" sans policy changes.
