Correction! I did nothing. This was all the awesome work of Marcel and Madhumita (our new team member). In addition to what Johnathan mentioned there are two other things:
1. Madhumita fixed the "Validate Again" functionality on the Cohorts screen. This lets you re-validate in case some of your users registrations have not replicated to the labs databases when you add the cohort. The Validate Again button shows up automatically if you have one or more invalid users in your cohort. If the invalid users are invalid for known reasons, there's no benefit to using the feature. 2. Marcel fixed problems with unicode user names in JSON output and re-deployed this feature (it had been rolled back in the past for causing other problems). Great work all.
