We should have that feature; a big +1. Dan Drake worked a bit on also 
using email to confirm account registration. In fact, if email address 
is required (a setting in the notebook admin page), a "Forgot password" 
link appears at the bottom of the login page (see sage.cs.drake.edu, for 
example). I don't know how well it works, though. Of course, as 
always, patches are welcome!

Should we require email addresses on sagenb.org?

Requiring email addresses could be a problem. Many schools block email clients. 
So, the student would not be able to confirm the email until they got home. 
Creating accounts the first day of class would be a hassle. It's so easy now. I 
say leave it the way it is!
