Description
For compliance with data protection laws in certain situations, it can be necessary to have the full privacy statement of the service as a part of the registration email.
It's already possible to pass a custom body in the verification email using the "Verification email instructions" setting, but that is only made for small strings without any formatting.
Since privacy statements can be quite long, it would be great to be able to use proper formatting for that and pass some HTML to add to the email. Maybe the "Verification email instructions" field could be changed to allow HTML, or maybe a separate field for a custom footer could be added?
Would this be in scope for the app? If yes, I'd be happy to work on a patch for this.
