+There are two isues at hand:
+ - having a link from Forum to identity for user registration (that's
+the main point here)
+ - having a scheme for identity to know where to redirect users
+afterwise (not using the referrer, but having known keywords, like:
+http://identity.mageia.org/register/?return_to=forums so identity
+knows how to act/what to suggest after registration)
