If your concept of the site depends on this plugin, you may want to consider hiring a developer (like Kawauso!) to build and test it for you…

Regarding waiting for the password over email – you can address that with this plugin! I use it on all my sites and can vouch for it:

This may also simplify the registration process… I haven’t used this one yet though:

Good luck!
