Comment (by mikelittle):

 It was certainly originally only discussed in the context of creating
 users.

 I think that semantically, being called from sanitize_user_field(), it
 doesn't feel like it should be changing that field in the same way.

 Given that the new default filter won't make any changes if not passed the
 $userdata array, I think that end is accomplished. (Even if not by
 original design ;-)
