If I wasn't currently in a relationship?, No. Now? Hell no.
An important part of a relationship for me at this point in MY life, is what the other party values most.
I take this cue from the attitude and reactions the other person has in every day to day things.
Intimacy, and affection is without a doubt important however I have always believed having a deeper spiritual and chemical bond with your partner should be most valued.
And frankly A person that has a known vice to "sleep around" all day long is not something I most value at this stage in my life.
Now then again you say they are a known sex addict , Known by who ?
If I where certain of that then I would say no.
If it where simply something I heard by word of mouth I would have to investigate that further.
Then again I've always looked at casual dating and sex as two different things,
Now from my POV being a practically married middle aged man I'd probably try and stay the hell away from her ;o)

PS:
I didn't see your details since they where very small and not really noticeable at first.
I really don't think there is anything WRONG with having a healthy sexual addiction, I think people just go threw phases in their lives, and part of life is having healthy sexual experiences.
People just have different things that drive them and different drives all together.
It's controlling your emotions that is most important.

If with the term sexual addiction, one implies a healthy sexual appetite, then I would not have a problem in dating a person like that. Without getting too personal in this forum, I personally feel that one's sexuality is a very enjoyable and important part of one's life, and the desire for frequent sex does not bother me.
So if the person has a strong sexual appetite, that would not dissuade me from dating him. If however, the sexual addiction is some form of chronic sexual compulsion, were the person would be inclined to have sex with multiple partners, and not be able to maintain a monogamous relationship with me, then no, I would not date a person like that.

I would not. A sex addict may force me to have sex with him/her without thinking about it.
But. there are people who would. Cos those people understand that its not the sex addicts' fault and its natural. If you are to date one, you should get the person to go to a sex addict anonymous meeting. that would help and you would be changing the person's life.
