It's just a policy;  for now, you will need to create a derived

tool to override it (we expect that registration policies are some
of the most site-specific things around).

We might generalize the existing tool to permit entry of the pattern
in the ZMI;  I am not sanguine about the usability of this, however,
for non-programmers.
