This could be purposed for a portal with a limited number of internal (to the company) contributors who add/manage their own datasets.

If you go to an organization page, and click on manage, then click Members and add Member you can invite a user by email. Their account is created and they are emailed a link to change the password/username. You should be able to override the email template in your theme extension. Would this solve your problem or so you specifically need to do this via registration?
