Comment (by Ipstenu):

 > regularly adding users without an email automatically being sent is a
 must

 Right. That 100% is what this ticket is about :)

 But I don't get the part about the changing password... My assumption, and
 please tell me if I'm wrong, is you're doing this:

 1) Create ONE admin/editor users for a staging site with a 'default' email
 address (editor at example.com)
 2) Change that password when a new editor is added and an old one is
 deleted

 Is that right?

 Is there a reason you're not just making a new user account for each
 person you're adding to the site? Assuming this ticket is completed (and
 we can stop emailing new accounts when they're created), you'd just then
 have to send them the reset link.
