Comment (by colorful tones):

 > A potential solution would be adding a new filter like
 rest_user_created_notification that plugins can override. Until then, you
 can use register_rest_field to add a suitable parameter here.

 And

 > But, yeah, a patch to make this happen by default seems like it would be
 nice, especially if there's also a hook to modify it to not send the
 messages.

 These sound like a clear way forward. @philsola do you think you would be
 interested in submitting a patch that adds a new filter to send a
 notification and plugins can override it?
