Require captchas at least for account creation #11

As I work on the account creation login I'm realizing that it would be easy for a user to spam-create + verify accounts and block off a lot of usernames that way, e.g. using email aliasing to have a bunch of unique email addresses. It occurs to me that we should probably incorporate captchas into the site somehow, at the very least for account creation.
