Creating new Signup/Signin Flows

[huxley]

Is there a recommended way to create a new signup/signin flows?

My use case is doing case-insensitive matches on the username followed by the email address, where the username can be different from the email address.

Having re-read the documentation, I now see that it's covered under the Custom Signup Flows and Combining Signin Flows. So I can just inherit from one of the flows and customize it to my needs. Cool.

Linking the sections of the docs just for anyone like myself that didn't realize how flexible the system actually is:

• http://django-sitegate.readthedocs.org/en/latest/signup_custom.html#custom-signup-flows-examples
• http://django-sitegate.readthedocs.org/en/latest/signin_custom.html#combining-sign-in-flows

Sorry. I've answered this one by e-mail, and it seems that GitHub won't accept it.
The answer was:

For this very case the most natural way would be adding, say, 'username_case_sensitive' bool attribute to existing base *-flow class. That should trigger alternative implementations of login or user creation. So that required behaviour could be chosen in sitegate decorators.

If implemented, this feature is a direct candidate for pull request.

Great, I'll look over the code more closely and make a pull request if I think I find a good implementation. Thanks!
