Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the create-new-user flow using the reported steps: enter an invalid username and select Save. Trace the flow to determine why neither inline validation nor a save error is shown; done means invalid usernames produce a clear warning or error and account creation failures are explained to the user.
