The delay is only a part of the issue, the other part is the lack of

Oh, reject you get a mail. If its deleted, you don't.
I like the invitation from a DD idea, that would avoid the pending
approval phase for a new account, but I have no clue how to implement
it.
I would rather implement a dedicated UI on signup.salsa.d.o
(gitlab-newuser) that would use GitLab's API to create and enable the
new account. Or maybe try to have something more integrated into
GitLab's registration UI, but I don't know if it's possible.
Sounds good, but just before you chose the wrong way: We dislike local
patches to gitlab (makes upgrading hell). So *either* this is a separate
thing just using APIs of gitlab *or* it has to come integrated via
upstream.
