 After adding a new user from the Users screen you're redirected to an
 anchor on the Users page (`wp-
 admin/users.php?usersearch=newuser&update=add#user-2`). This doesn't work
 well with the ~~admin bar~~ toolbar in place because it mostly covers up
 the point where the anchor is. This is more prominent now the toolbar is
 persistent in the admin area in 3.3.

 Off the top of my head I can't think of any other screen which redirects
 to an anchor. Maybe we should just remove the anchor in the redirect? The
 redirect includes the `usersearch` parameter which should be enough in
 most cases anyway.
