 Replying to [comment:4 spacedmonkey]:
 > What the benefit of passing the WP_User here? The WP_User is in cache
 here, so getting it out of cache isn't that bad for performance. What
 problem are we trying to solve here.
 It is a tidy-up and gives us another way to call the function
 It came out of fixing https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/53634 where
 the fix was to change what I passed to this function Been able to pass the
 use it solve having to pre-select what field to use to find the user.
