Description

To compliment #14602, a user_can_for_blog function is needed.

Currently we have no function to pass a user ID, blog, and a capability/role which will return whether the user can perform that role or has that capability for a particular blog.

See attached patch please.

Thanks,
Mike

Added a newer version, would be great to see this in a release soon :). The version I added deals with non-multisite installations appropriately.

Not sure if this is necessary given how rarely the user_can() function is used. You should just do switch_to_blog(), user_can(), restore_current_blog().

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing for the time being... figured it'd be good, since it's there for current_user_can_for_blog().
