Comment (by boonebgorges):

 > This makes it sound like when a user invites a new member, a bare record
 is created in the wp_signups table. Is this what you were intending?

 Yes, that was my idea. My main thought was that we could then avoid
 duplicating features that already exist in `wp_signups` - particularly
 `activation_key` but perhaps also `meta` (not 100% sure the latter would
 be needed). There's a trade-off here: by avoiding duplication, we also
 require a bit of extra work to avoid some of the default behavior of WP
 when putting entries into the wp_signups table. So it might not be worth
 it. I guess the overarching principle is to design for simplicity rather
 than complexity :-D
