Comment (by squarecandy):

 This can currently be accomplished without core modification in this way:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function mynamespace_user_update($user, $request, $create)
 {
   $user_id = $user->ID;
   wp_send_new_user_notifications($user_id);
 }
 add_action( 'rest_insert_user', 'mynamespace_user_update', 12, 3 );
 }}}

 But, yeah, a patch to make this happen by default seems like it would be
 nice, especially if there's also a hook to modify it to not send the
 messages.
