Comment:
Looking at https://github.com/django/django/pull/5572 again, I'd suggest
the following API:
* Adding a `clean_username` method would make `UserCreationForm` less
subclass friendly. I'd suggest rename `UserCreationForm` to
`BaseUserCreationForm` and document it as a preferred way to extend user
creation form
* Add a `clean_username` method to `UserCreationForm` (it will be a
subclass of `BaseUserCreationForm`)
Thoughts?
