E-mail validation required on registration

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Make the e-mail validation required on account registration.

This could be made optional adding a variable on settings.py:

EMAIl_REGISTRATION_REQUIRED = [True || False ]

I implemented an initial version 2 weeks ago. It seemed to work ok, but comment 
if
there's anything left, because I'm not using this for my site.

This isn't working for me. You set user.is_active false if you require a 
validating
email, but you never set it to true again once you receive it. I've attached a 
small
patch which I will be using to fix the issue, but I think it opens up some 
security
flaws, if the user has been de-activated for some other reason.

Also, registration_done.html should give an a more appropriate message when this
option is set. Or at least inform users that this needs to be overrided.

Thanks, I have commit your patch, and modify the registration_done.html 
template to
show the correct message if the validation_required functionality has been 
activated.

About the security flaws, you're totally right. Maybe a solution will be 
re-active
the account only if the profile hasn't been created yet (first time user).
