 Born from the mind of #32428, fully formed and Athenaesque...

 When creating a new user on a site, 4.2 had the option to not email the
 user a password.

 That option is no longer there, so an admin cannot create users on the
 fly. Can this be restored?

 It also impacts #33209

 > I was just testing my plugins against WP4.3, and discovered that while I
 could previously notify only admins of new user registrations by calling
 wp_new_user_notification() (with no 2nd parameter), in 4.3 the behavior is
 changed: now it seems to always notify both admins and users (there is no
 longer a 2nd parameter that can be left blank to suppress emails to
 users).
 > How can I get back the behavior of WP prior to 4.3: send new user
 notifications to the admin *only*?

 We need a filter
