Issue persist on 3.7-staging.
Still persists on 3.7.3-staging.
In the frontend and backend if the passwords don't match you get a 'red' error message so it would seem that to be consistent we should use an 'error' message in the frontend as opposed to a 'warning'.
If this is agreed then change line 177 of components/com_users/controllers/registration.php to read
`$this->setMessage($model->getError(), 'error');
@nibra - please review in a week to decide course of action
