Feature Proposal: Have problem_adding report the actual error

Motivation

Currently no specific error message is reported by problem_adding making it difficult to debug, especially if you're writing your own Users modules.

Description and Documentation

Have problem_adding report the specific error.

Examples

Impact

Implementation

The only change here is adding the %PARAM2 line.

%TMPL:DEF{"problem_adding"}%
---+++ %MAKETEXT{"Error registering user [_1]" args="%PARAM1%"}%

%MAKETEXT{"There has been a problem adding your user id to the Password system."}%

%PARAM2%

%MAKETEXT{"Please contact [_1]." args="%WIKIWEBMASTER%"}%

%MAKETEXT{"You have *not* been registered."}%
%TMPL:END%

Discussion

We've been working to remove developer error reports from the User interface - both to reduce non-techy surprise, and and to avoid giving hackers information that might help them. I think you'll need to elaborate on what PARAM2 is going to show.
