Allow a custom value for $maxAttempts in the the Filament\Pages\Auth\Register class' rate limiter

TLDR
Allow a custom value for $maxAttempts in the the Filament\Pages\Auth\Register class' rate limiter

Current situation
Within Filament\Pages\Auth\Register::register(), the $maxAttempts parameter of the rate limiter is now hard-coded to 2. We have noticed that this causes users to abort their registration with our SaaS product, as they need to wait for a minute after they have made two mistakes in the registration form in a row. It actually happened on a demo call and was slightly awkward.

Our own solution
We now have copied the register() method on the Filament\Pages\Auth\Register class for the sake of setting custom values for the rate limiter.

Optimal scenario
Maybe other Filament users would also like to set custom values for the rate limiter. For that reason, I figured it might be useful to drop the feature request here: what if the values for the rate limiter could be set dynamically within the Filament\Pages\Auth\Register class?

I look forward to hearing from you. Enjoy your day.

I needed this as well.

In my panel provider, I did ->registration(Register::class) to override the registration form with a custom one, and overrode the WithRateLimiting trait. (You can't do this the usual way, because it comes from a trait, so this uses an alias.)

<?php
class Register extends \Filament\Pages\Auth\Register
{
    use WithRateLimiting {
        WithRateLimiting::rateLimit as baseRateLimit;
    }

    protected function rateLimit($maxAttempts, $decaySeconds = 60, $method = null, $component = null): void
    {
        // set the *actual* $maxAttempts rate limit you want here
        $this->baseRateLimit(5, $decaySeconds, $method, $component);
    }
}
