Make in page requests to verify email and requested username before submit on registration form #96

For a future version.

On User Registration Page ( /register.php?b=1 ) ...

  1. Make an in page request to confirm availability of the requested username.
  2. Make an in page request to verify that user specified email address is not already in use

If either one of the above has a problem, it is frustrating for the user because the page reloads and the CAPTCHA has to be re-entered and the password has been zeroed out.

Be nice if mandatory fields and acceptable password format were verified in page before submit.

We've heard a lot of user frustration about this over the years. Especially with the older generation.
