Fixed #5786: relaxed the validation for usernames to allow more common characters '@', etc.
This is really just a stop-gap until we come up with a improved way of handling
disparate auth data, but it should help us stretch a bit more milage out of the
current system.
Thanks to alextreme, lbruno, and clayg.
