conflict with inline registration

Hi, i have been trying to use your module together with the inline registration module. Your module works and so does inline registration, but not when both is active. I believe its because inline reg. hijacks the user login validation/submit functions via hook_form_alter.

What happens when both modules are active is that the user is still presented with a textfield for user name. Then after submit, auto_username takes over which is what should happen. However, i dont think the user should be presented with a username field to begin with.
(i need to use inline registration because i want users to create an account while creating a node as well)

A simple hack is to insert these 2 lines of code into the inline registration module:

 $form['register']['form']['name']['#type'] = 'hidden';
 $form['register']['form']['name']['#default_value'] = 'not_applicable';

That just makes the username field hidden and sets a default value. When the user submit, your module takes over and works fine for what I want it to do.

I tried created my own custom module and tried using hook_form_alter to hack into the user_login form provided by inline registration, but I am not sure how to do this. the hook_form_alter is being called first by my module and then by inline registration. So i cannot get the form_id. I may be wrong about this though.

The simple hack above works but I would rather not hack the inline registration module and to put my custom code into a custom module. Do you have any idea how to do this?
