Description

It would be nice to verify the email address of a new user, i.e. send an email with a verification token or somesuch.

This has been proposed in several places in the past already:

- https://github.com/ckan/ckan/issues/1535
- https://github.com/ckan/ckan/issues/2838
- https://lists-archive.okfn.org/pipermail/ckan-dev/2019-November/023331.html

Research direction

Start by reviewing the prior proposals in CKAN issues 1535 and 2838 and the linked CKAN-dev discussion to understand the intended verification flow. Done should mean that a new user's email address can be verified using an emailed token or equivalent mechanism.
