 That's true, but, if you give the content of a site without user to an
 existing user (of another blog), in my opinion, it makes sense to add the
 user to this site no ?

 We can do this easily in code but we are forced to add a role to the user,
 so the main difficult point in my opinion is to know which role do we need
 to set to this user.

 I guest the best option is during the form where you ask if you want to
 give content to a user, we will detect if the selected user that will
 receive content is part of the blog, if yes, then ask the admin to select
 a role to chose for this user.

 But maybe it's a lot of complication for a little issue.
