You do not need to use their signup at all. Any existing user can create an account for a friend or acquaintance (or stranger if a suitable deal is made) using the cli wallet. There are a few other ways such as the anonsteem service.

Totally agree. In regards to a "waiting list", I think they should let all accounts enter the system without delay. They can then determine the undesirables and not apply the delegation of steem. Then the undesirables can fund their own accounts. I think too many new users are adversely affected with the current signup logic.
Bad actors/Good actors can simply use the cli to create accounts and fund.
They are concerned about too many names being squatted since even removing the delegation doesn't not release the account/name for reuse. I proposed another approach to signup logic a while back which would allow the accounts to be fully recovered but it was not adopted.
