Description

I noticed this with RegistryNameStep but if you hit 'enter' right away before you have typed anything, it will try to run validateNameAvailability with an empty string. This causes the name validation step to hang. You can pretty easily get out of it by hitting esc, but I don't think a user would know why it just suddenly froze. Not a huge concern, but perhaps we should automatically run validateInput in asyncValidationTask as well, just to make sure that validateInput happens at least once.

Research direction

Start with RegistryNameStep and read asyncValidationTask alongside validateInput. Reproduce the empty Enter submission, then ensure validation runs before validateNameAvailability so the name-validation step does not hang; confirm the existing escape behavior is no longer needed.
