* to check if this isn't related to old test data in the system I tried
to add a new user to the system:
  * during that phase I violated some valdation rules (password too
short, non belgian zipcode (?)...) and I must say some RED indicating
what and where the error is should help allong with some general
feedback THAT THERE IS AN ERROR
  * ultimately I don't get any more validation errors reported, but
still I fail to register this new guy named "Iñtërnâtiônàlizætiøn Test"
(I don't get email, I don't get to see the new peep, I don't get a
form-submit feedback that talks about "SUCCES")

By the way, for some general advise on i18n, and the good test-string,
see http://www.intertwingly.net/stories/2004/04/14/i18n.html


* Furthermore: I can't get into my own 'old' record about me. I'm not
sure I remember my password, but I'm very sure I don't remember the
"confirmation code"
Frankly I think this confirmation code idea is not a good idea: since
anyone forgetting his password will almost never have remembered this
confirmation code IMHO
Sorry if I've missed earlier discussions on this approach, but I think
it is fundamentally broken.
