The Email address is intended to used to pull in account information
from mugshot so using username at localhost wouldn't really work.

This user creation module is intended to be used by desktop users, not
systems administrators so having a place to select advanced options like
userid doesn't really make sense. FWIW, the current user creation module
doesn't have those options for local users either.
