When you try to create a user starting with a number you get a validation error of the form.

When you inspect the save button element and remove disabled="true" from the save button HTML you are able to save the account and the account gets created without any issues.

We validate against strings more than 16 in length, and give a warning for names over 8 characters about possible incompatibly. No minimum length checks though.

Seems quite sensible to me. Is this only used for system (BSD/Linux) accounts? The only thing missing is minimal/maximal length checks.

"_$" is matched, but also very long strings. Google for Debian: "Usernames may only be up to 32 characters long.". It is quite tedious to prevent users for stupid input
