plataformatec/devise — Issue #1710: Re-registering email if unconfirmed

Currently, if a model is `:confirmable`, any new registration must use a unique email. But consider this practical scenario: someone registers using my email account. Clearly, they can't confirm ownership, but in the meantime, I can't create an account because my email is already in the system.

I've reviewed the documentation and mailing list, but I can't seem to find anything that addresses this. I imagine we could potentially tie account deletion to `allow_unconfirmed_access_for`, but this would probably require a cron job.

Any ideas of how this can be addressed?
