When an existing staged user Joins my site, filled in user custom fields data isn't saved

I am able to reproduce this bug and I think we should fix it.

  1. create a group that accepts email from any email address
  2. create some custom user fields
  3. email the group set up in (1) from an email address not already associated with an account on the site, which creates staged user with that email address
  4. create an account using same email address as staged user
  5. when prompted, complete the user fields
  6. go to user profile and see that the user fields are not filled

When you create an account using an email address that is not already connected to a staged user account the custom user fields are filled as you’d expect.
