#17394: Network Admin -> Sites -> Users not report correctly

 The Network Admin -> Sites -> Users screen does not list all users in the
 site. I see the symptom of this issue has been reported before, but I have
 found the cause (in my case anyway).

 '''Example Scenario:'''
 In my set up I have added plugins that add user roles: a registration
 plugin that adds "Registration Admin" and a event management plugin that
 adds "Office" and "Committee". I have the registration plugin installed in
 all sites (root and test), but the event plugin in only installed in the
 test site.

 When I add a user to the root site, I can choose the normal roles or
 "Registration Admin", when I add a user to the test site I can choose the
 normal roles or any of the 3 new roles that have been added.

 '''Problem:'''
 When I view the list of users on the Network Admin, not all users are
 displayed in the list. It appears the Network Admin screen works in the
 context of the root site, where the event plugin is not installed. As a
 result, the Office and Committee roles are not available in the root site,
 and users of the sub-site with the those roles do not show in the user
 list.

 The filters show the correct total number of users beside All, but the
 additional roles unique to the sub-site are not listed. In the sub-site
 Dashboard, they show correctly, and if I install the other plugin to add
 the Office and Committee roles to the root site they will show in the
 Network Admin -> Sites -> Users screen for the sub-site.

 It would appear the user list for a sub-site will ignore users that are
 assigned a role that doesn't exist in the root site, even though they are
 assigned a valid role in the site displayed.

 This bug is reproducible by adding roles to sub-sites.

 I would a happily help with more clarification or resolving this issue as
 needed. I know it's not critical, but it is very frustrating when
 administering a large multi-site network.
