This issue tracks a proactive evaluation of username enumeration attack vector for the front end. as far as I know, there is no immediate reason to believe this is an issue, but I am opening this issue to explicitly explore the attack vector (research) and evaluation of the implementation.

When reporting back, please do both (a) research and (b) evaluation. Action items for improvement are appreciated.

Evaluated and in progress for the backend. Closing here as this is not a frontend related issue.
