In your XWiki Workspaces instance, click on the "Adminisration" link located at the top left of the top menu bar. On the Settings page, click on the "Edit settings" located at the top left. Then set "allow public registration" to false. Does this work ?

The user object has a field for setting whether the user name is activated. If you're using XWiki Enterprise you can edit XWiki.Registration and there is an example of how to add a "favorite color" field which contains a "doAfterRegistration" option for code to do something to the user after registration, you can set this to get the user object from the user's document then set the "active" field to 0. XWiki.Registration does not exist in Workspaces and you would have to add the code to xwiki.war/templates/register-inline.vm I'm sure there are other ways to do it (I don't know very much about Workspaces) but this is one that I know.

This solves the need for validation, but then you'll need to develop some UI which allows administrators to list and manually activate new users.
