hzrd149 (npub1ye5…knpr) please allow users to set a NIP-05 ID in Nostrudel regardless of either or not it's valid - hear me out.

I've built a NIP-05 registration tool ( https://ok0.org/nip05/ ), and I want to be able to verify if the npub actually belongs to the user who is registering. The easiest way to do this is to ask the user to add their desired NIP-05 ID to their profile prior to using the tool. This way the tool can check if it matches, which proves that is indeed their npub.

With Nostrudel doing the same checks itself, we're stuck in a chicken and egg situation. I don't think there's much value for the client to enforce it, so I'm hoping you may consider removing that check.
