Comment (by DJPaul):

 This is one of those quirks that existed only in the registration template
 files, and nowhere else. My bad for missing it.

 Ray's patch amends the line to each field type's `edit_field_html()` which
 is the right place, but adding anything here will also appear in the user
 profile/edit and the wp-admin profile/edit templates. I don't know if this
 matters, but it is a change.

 I can only find the action used in `bp_core_screen_signup()`. Triggering
 form validation on the user profile/edit screen doesn't result in two
 messages, so I guess the patch is OK. Sometime in the future we should
 probably move the registration action over to use the validation messaging
 that the rest of the profile screens use.
