You can have a look at [GitHub - discourse/discourse-authentication-validations · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-authentication-validations) which does just that, except only for the user sign up page. It doesn’t appear trivial to adopt it to the user preferences page where those fields are edited.

But you’re asking for a feature, not looking for a solution to your immediate problem.
