[keycloak-dev] Allow registering only with email and password

[Stian Thorgersen]

Hi,

We are planning to introduce the ability to define user profiles and
associated validation for a realm. This will be done by a Profile SPI and
we will have a default provider that will let you define the user profile
in a JSON format. We also plan to have an editor in the admin console for
defining the profile.

As such we would not accept a toggle for first name/last name.

Until profile spi is ready you can create a custom registration flow
though, which will allow you to define the handling of the registration
form, not just edit the form.
