Reproduction steps:

- Open an anonymous browser tab
- Click on user registration
- Enter a wrong e-mail
- `Email editable` site setting is `on`
- I am offered to change my e-mail on the 2nd step of the registration process
- Click on the button
- I get an error message

Result: On calling `u/account-created/edit-email` there is `403` error:

```json
{
    "errors": [
        "You are not permitted to view the requested resource."
    ],
    "error_type": "invalid_access"
}

```

What is wrong?
