usernameField not creating unique index

[eudaimos]

This may be a problem with the default username field as well, but since I'm using custom to set it to "email," I can't as yet validate the case.

When using mongoose.set('debug', true); I will see in the console:

Mongoose: accounts.ensureIndex({ _id: 1 }) { safe: undefined, background: true, unique: true }

What I expect to see is in the console is:

Mongoose: accounts.ensureIndex({ _id: 1 }) { safe: undefined, background: true, unique: true }
Mongoose: accounts.ensureIndex({ email: 1 }) { safe: undefined, background: true, unique: true }

Because a unique constraint index isn't created on accounts.email, my application allows

// directly in mongodb
db.account.update({ _id: 100 }, { $set: { email: "[email protected]" } })

// from mongoose where account is a document
account.update({ email: "[email protected]" }, function (uerr, numUpdated, raw) { ... });

to go completely unchecked, thus allowing 2+ users with the same username.

I am working around it by specifically defining email in my account schema like this:

...,
email: {
  type: String,
  required: true,
  lowercase: true,
  unique: true
},
...

... but I would expect this to be done already.

Thanks for pointing that out I'll add the unique option as default true in the next version

We also ended up with 2 accounts for the same user, apparently due to user double clicking the signup button. Manually added unique: true to our user field.

OK, this is something er need to fix.
