Summary0001411: fix bad categorization of pre-registered guests
DescriptionRight now, a self-registered guest who registers in advance (remotely) gets an entry created in temporary_password and is authenticated in the system through authentication::preregistered_guests.

Problem with that is that the category applied to such a guest is the one configured by: [guests_admin_registration].category. Which should be the category for administrators-created guest accounts.

To fix: target category should be in temporary_password table to support preregistration properly. preregistered_guests then just feeds the category from the table to the user who authenticated.

Workarounds can be performed by users by modifying their conf/authentication/preregistered_guests.pm... module logic.

Bump if you feel this is important.

I did some code to add that field to temporary_table to permit usage of categories in the guest_manager. Code is in feature/guest_manager_categories

These bugs have been sitting untouched since 2012.
Closing them and possibly reopening in github tracker where relevant.
