Hi,

I noticed something strange when testing the registration of users.

If I attempt to register as user: 'My Name' (note the space), the form
validation passes and I get an 'email sent' message.
What actually happens though, is the the username gets inserted into
the db as 'my'.
I'm fine with the lowercasing but I would rather strip the spaces and
insert the user as 'myname'
I have been searching for a hook to do this and I have tried the two
methods:

auth.settings.register_onvalidation = clean_username
auth.settings.register_onaccept = clean_username

Where 'clean_username' is a function to strip all the spaces from the
entered text.
My problem is that the username has already been stripped by the time
it gets this far. Strangely enough this doesn't happen for the
username field in the login form.

Does anywhere know where this might be happening and how I can
override it?

Thanks,

John
