Sounds ultimately like a backend issue at the core of the data model: data integrity. Which we know is a fair challenge that we took on by splitting data across services rather than relying on a single database and many people have been hard at work on compromises for a while now. I'm closing this issue because it doesn't seem to add much and has been around for a while--the Stripes end of things is mainly to be graceful when things are incomplete while surfacing an error so there is an opportunity to notice potential corruption. And I think the more specific detail about the user creation form has long been accounted for.

That's fine – I already did , so there is no great urgency to this. Mostly I want it in the back of our minds as we think about other edit-related stuff.

This immediately sounds like a semi-big change of the standard mode of operation for redux-form, we should maybe consider it a bit.
