Description billinghurst 2012-04-09 05:39:04 UTC 
When an existing (or newly existing) account from another wiki creates an account on a second wiki it skips the filter action == 'createaccount'.  This filter is useful for managing components, and it would be useful for it to not skip that filter, alternatively for a filter akin to 'createaccount' to be made available for the filter.

My evidence is a spam-type account was created on specieswiki and immediately thereafter created on commonswiki bypassing the account creation filter.  Watched live time and checked against user creation and filter logs
