Comment (by jaschaio):

 Hey @SergeyBiryukov, thanks for the fast reply. I have seen the other
 filters, but there is still no filter for the USER ID.

 As I explained: Within the "wp_insert_post_data" function you have the
 ability to filter through all the $data array. That means that you can
 modify the $data['ID'] and assign a different one before the post gets
 actually inserted into the database.

 The "wp_insert_user" function seems to work different, as it inserts the
 user first based on the nickname and than works with the ID returned by
 the database going forward. Meaning that I can't hook anywhere to change
 the ID of the to be created user.

 I just wondered why there are filters available for every other field of
 the user, but not for the ID. Especially if its possible within the
 "wp_insert_post_data" function. These two should work similar.
