Comment (by sconzof):

 It is still useful to know when creating a user account whether an error
 is caused by a duplicate email address or duplicate username.

 And the HTTP 409 (Conflict) response code is more useful than the current
 HTTP 500 response code.

 What are the next steps to getting this change into a release? Is there
 something I can do to help? Looking for some guidance... Thanks!
