This is a special case for the "test" server, where we have a well known 
'demo' account. This scenario shouldn't happen on the "official" server.

I have directly manipulated the DB, and attributed the 'demo' account to user 
1, Drupal's admin user who cannot vote anyway. 
This way, 
1) nobody else can use the demo account anymore.
2) Fabrice can use the form again to request an account for himself.

When I get some time, I'll add a procedure for the account administrator 
(David), to cancel/erase such requests, where it is proved that the Drupal 
user is not the owner of the demexp account. 

All in all, the new procedure is working, because it allowed you to prevent 
someone from using the demo account, because of "identity mismatch".
