And I spoke too soon - still a problem - for example, if a user enters correct info for the username and email fields, but the passwords don't match - when they click back to the form, the "create user" button is still disabled. Doesn't make sense that a user would need to re-verify the username and email, since they clearly passed validation, but until one of the two 'verify' buttons is clicked again, the "create user" button cannot be clicked. Helpful that now those buttons actually can be clicked on, but it doesn't make sense from a UI perspective that they should need to be.

Bug (or feature?) - the create user button is disabled by default, until the person registering uses one of the "verify" buttons (this could be by design, people should verify, I just doubt that most bother to)
Please let me know about these two issues, and if there are plans to combine validation and verification with the username field.
