 Currently, when a users profile is updated, the `profile_update` action is
 called with the $user_id and $old_user_data as parameters.

 $old_user_data is an object containing only the basic WP_User fields, but
 none of the additional user keys (first_name, last_name, etc. are not part
 of this object)

 It would be nice if $old_user_data actually contained all (WordPress
 defined) userfields.

 That way, one could for example write a plugin to email changes to an
 administrator, but only when there actually was a change!

 Relevant code is in `wp-includes/user.php`, the `wp_insert_user()` method.
