Add hooks to "Add User" page in admin back-end

[Bonesnap]

Any chance of adding some hooks to the add user page in the back-end? The update user page has some hooks that allow customization (like adding additional fields), but there are none for the add user page. As WordPress is being used more and more as a full-fledged CMS, clients are requesting some more complex functionality, which includes sometimes the ability to add additional fields when adding a new user. As of right now we have to tell them to add the user, and then use the edit user page to fill in the additional fields. This can cause problems sometimes because some fields may be required for the site to function properly, and clients sometimes don't fill them in after, forget, etc. It's essentially forcing a one-step process into two steps.

Adding some hooks to this page would be a life saver!

Hi there,

just checked and in user-new.php you can use 'user_new_form' action (since 3.7.0), is there a reason why that hook does not fit your needs?

It does - I just wasn't aware of its existence at the time. I believe we are using it in a couple projects.

Thanks for the attention!
