I have an happy flow where user first registers and then may update data ; but, in general, there are some ways to work around this flow: for example, user register but does not confirm an account ; or I update data of a user that is not in MysticBBS (because there was no integration when it was created)

something like this may do the job:
mystic -newuser handle=g00r00 email=me@mysticbbs.com pass=1234 -updateifexists

or may I do something like this with mystic pascal ? (I have tried python, but did not manage to have it work)
