Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 Agreed. I had first thought that it would be confusing to provide
 `add_user_to_blog()` in `create_item()`, but after looking closer at
 `delete_item()`, the user is only removed from a site (via
 `wp_delete_user()` and not deleted from the network. It probably makes
 sense to align the expected behaviors here.

 The harder part will be figuring out (in 4.x) the right endpoint to assign
 existing network users to individual sites. Right now if you use
 `create_item()` on an existing username, `wpmu_validate_user_signup()`
 will kick back an error.
