Add 'Validate' button to new_channel page and disable submit until validated. This is to get around the issue that clicking submit without ever focusing and blurring the nickname field won't actually submit the form but only provide validation. It needs to be clicked again to submit. The first click processed the blur but remained on the page with no feedback. If somebody has better workarounds, please provide. The goal is to ensure that the name and the nickname are both validated before we can submit.
