AuthUserSignup is in use on several sites and to my knowledge there
are no known problems.  Certainly it is supported.

WikiSh got some bad press on this list many months ago wrt security
and as a result the cookbook documentation (perhaps somewhat
defensively) goes into detail about how security concerns are
addressed, documenting several layers of security and etc.  I'm not
aware of any security concerns at all with WikiSh -- certainly if
there are concerns I would like to know about them so I can address
them.

However, I'm not saying it's for everybody -- I'll just say
AuthUserSignup is working without any problems on several sites that
I'm aware of.  My personal choice in your situation would be AuthUser
+ AuthUserSignup.
