They can't.  :-(

If you can't get by with what they give you... I REALLY recommend switching
to a different user registration package.

If you MUST use K2, you will need to make changes in the following areas:
1) System plugins: K2 uses system plugins to detect when a new user is
registering and modify the registration form to add their fields
2) User plugins: K2 uses the user registration event to then grab it's own
fields[see system plugin above] and add that data to it's database
3) K2 user controller, model, and views: K2 information which is displayed
to the user, searches, etc are all done in this code.

The upside of K2 is it has a very nice ACL system for itself which is all
leveraged off it's user system

The downside of K2 is that even if you neutar the user stuff and use
something else, you still need part of it to handle the user groups for the
acl.
