Comment:

 If you want to modify the signup validation that BuddyPress does, I'd
 recommend filtering 'bp_core_validate_user_signup', and setting/unsetting
 error messages. With the hook you've requested, I imagine you'd have to do
 something kinda hackish (like messing with the $_POST global) to work
 around our validation.

 That said, there are legit reasons for wanting this hook, and it's
 harmless to add it. I'm going to tweak the name to fit better with our
 naming conventions. Thanks for the suggestion!
