Note that the completion still works when you enter the first name and last name before entering the user name. But I agree with you that it's kind of a usability regression. See also the chat where I discussed this with Thiago Krieck and he considered the change okay.

See also the proposal that was done on the forum about the changes: https://forum.xwiki.org/t/proposal-for-a-better-registration-process/13805 apparently the idea from Thiago Krieck was that the username field is required while first/last name are not, hence the move.

Note: I changed the priority as blocker, because you labelled as a regression and per our rules, any regression is a blocker and should get priority. But we might change again its priority depending how we handle it.
