 Hi,

 I added two fields in Add a new user to the site and network view. First
 name and Last name. I added a screenshot if you want to see the changes.

 By the way, I am agree with #comment:3, this is a really issue in my
 opinion for two reasons :
 1) Bad UX, we don't always understand in the first time the difference
 between the two forms
 2) There are plugins that add some fields in the new user form, and those
 fields are displayed in the both forms instead of only the new user one.
 If we want to fix this in only one form, we should find a good UX with a
 notice for the email and username field maybe like "Type the username of
 an existing user if you want to add him to this site".

 Maybe we should open a second ticket for this both forms problem, what do
 you think ?
