 When `createProject` completes successfully, the project exists but is unapproved.  An administrator can approve it by calling `approveProject` in the `Projects` service once the testbed's real-world criteria are met.  An administrator may also call `removeProject` in the `Projects` service to remove an unapproved project. (`removeProject` also will remove approved projects, potentially removing many users' rights to operate on the testbed.)
 
+When a new user is created, that user is temporarily logged in and can issue `createProject` requests.  That grace period is currently 30 minutes.  After that time elapses, the user must set their password by responding to the e-mail sent by the `createUser` request.
+
+This grace period is intended to make the user's experience joining the testbed and creating their first project more seamless.  They need not leave the UI to validate their account before making their first `createProject` or `joinProject` requests.
