I have a few goals. Right now I'm working on account creation/editing.
There are a few issues: - a user can willy-nilly change his or her username. (should this be allowed?) - usernames can be ridiculous "hsmnbn3# sd789^#&# " for example - password can be blank - in fact username can also be blank but that username has already been assigned in the official AUR.
Those are the issues I'm going to address with compatibility for old (bad) usernames, etc.
I think I'd put a check to prompt a user with a bad username to change it when the go in to edit their account. (And maybe even on login)
I've done this part. If a user with a bad username tries to edit his/her account they'll be told that their username is invalid and to change it. I decided to continue to allow users to change their username whenever they please for now. Please fetch and let me know what you think.
