Public bug reported:

A user can register, and be sent emails, multiple times with the same
details prior to completing the registration process from the link sent.
There are multiple records in usr_registration with only the sequential
id differing.

Perhaps we need to check for a unique email in here and offer some
notification to the user that the email has already been used?

However, there is also the issue that if this initial email wasn't
received it might not be easy for the user to wait 24 hours until it
clears from the database to try again, or to get hold of a sysadmin to
delete the record manually so they can do so without hassle so there
might be extra requirements around this or this might be the reason it
currently allows for multiple records.
