 * If during registration of a user they do not enter the top required username 
   field the form does not submit and reloads without any error indication. If it
   were to at least cue the user to complete the require xprofile field that would
   help them greatly. Mine are confused so far. Is there a way to do this.. or should
   it be doing it already? [http://scorchburn.org](http://scorchburn.org)

 * Mmmm, this is probably a theme issue if you are using a custom theme. The normal
   behaviour should be display an error message above the username field saying:“
   Please enter a username”.
