Comment:

 Kind of interesting to see the two different approaches the to same
 problem.

 The patch here, [attachment:22277.2.patch] seems better because:
 * it doesn't needlessly check the `promote_users` cap like
 [attachment:ticket:20221:user-new.2.patch] does
 * [attachment:ticket:20221:user-new.2.patch] incorrectly changes the
 `is_super_admin()` check on the `get_user_by( 'login'` call since only
 super admins can add existing users by login anyway

 I suggest we close #20221 in favor of the patch here.
