#217 closed defect (FIXED)
Some "verification needed" messages are not clear that _e-mail address_ is to be verified

Description
These messages:
- "Almost done! Your account still needs to be verified."
- "Someone has registered an account with this username, but it still has to be verified." say the account needs to be verified. But really what needs to be verified is that the e-mail address belongs to the account's owner. The account itself needs to be activated.

Hm.
I've changed these lines to:
The last two have a couple of other lines that help give some useful context:
<p> {% trans -%} Almost done! Your account still needs to be activated. {%- endtrans %} </p> <p> {% trans -%} An email should arrive in a few moments with instructions on how to do so. {%- endtrans %} </p>and
<p> {% trans -%} Someone has registered an account with this username, but it still has to be activated. {%- endtrans %} </p> <p> {% trans login_url=request.urlgen('mediagoblin.auth.login') -%} If you are that person but you've lost your verification email, you can <a href="{{ login_url }}">log in</a> and resend it. {%- endtrans %} </p>Given that additional context, I think that makes things clear enough. Reopen this if you feel otherwise.
Thanks!
