    submit_course_enquirySensitive Action

    Submit a course enquiry to CourseFinder on the user's behalf. Calling without confirm returns a preview listing the fields still required - collect those from the user, then call again with confirm:true to create a real lead. The preview's `form` field describes this course's specific requirements: some courses only accept leads from certain states/postcodes or within a distance of the campus, and postgraduate courses require confirming prerequisites (qualification_confirmed), so always check the preview first. phone_number must be a valid Australian mobile (04XXXXXXXX or +614XXXXXXXX). Always show the preview and get explicit user approval before submitting with confirm:true.
