New description:

 In multisite and the super_admin adds a new user to a site,
 if the user is new to the network, WP sends out the welcome email (but not
 the confirmation of being added to the site)

 In my client's use case, they were looking for the SBD (silent but deadly)
 mode, as in no email at all should go out.

 The language implies there is "no" notification but the welcome email
 belies that language.

 if even the welcome email should be disabled, then
 in wp-admin/user-new.php (around line 108)
 adding
 `add_filter('wpmu_welcome_user_notification', ''__return_false');`
 would kill the new user notification from wpmu_activate_signup() (a few
 lines later)
