Okie doke. You can login with your username as the password since I had to reset it, and you'll be fine. Then you can change it back to whatever it was obviously. There's no forcing of an email check as well.
Anyway, I preserved most everything in everyone's profile, so yippie. Now I can play with other things related to the portal frontend.
EDIT: Relogin if you noticed you're logged out BTW, also, for recent newcomers. Those crazzzzzy cookies...
