Appending the char "!" to the password gives the error "SyntaxError: JSON parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data" - same screenshots posted by @Lodion - that's on Enterprise (haven't tried other instances yet).
Removing the ! let me create my user just fine.
Edit: oh just saw mod message, will wait for next build then try again.
Edit2: adding the ! to the password now works
Oh that kinda seems like a bad sign regarding proper data validation. Hopefully it's just a small bug and not part of a larger issue.
It was a small bug, apparently a bad PR merged by mistake.
I heard someone say that you can't make your password too long. Does not bode well. I use a unique password, at least.
