Description
If you open up the organization form view /organization/create, select create an organization, and then type in the name of an existing organization, the form validation will fail but there is no UI indication given to the user.
Two changes needed:
- Reopen the correct tab on form errors
- Show the non-field errors or whatever is missing from the form display currently that is hiding this error.
See the user login form for an example of both, this form should reopen the correct tab on form errors during auth.

Research direction
Start at the organization creation form view at /organization/create and compare its error behavior with the user login form, which is cited as an example. Reproduce the validation error using an existing organization name; done means the correct tab reopens and the non-field error is visible in the form UI.
