 > Just throwing a thought out there... If the first field is the email
 field - can do an autocomplete search on that for existing users? Then we
 should be able to show the remainder of the form fields conditionally:

 existing user

 a new user

 This more or less what I had in mind. A prototype would be good for this.
 I actually have some work in progress code in my plugin, but it doesn't
