I want to stay uptodate with t2.py so hardcoding changes is a last
resort.
Perhaps I could redefine t2_person without the IS_EMAIL() restriction,
so that the email field can take a user name.
Of course the register and login forms would still use the 'email'
label, so is it possible to override the default label in a form?
