Description:
In order to help those creating a new wiki with a requirement to preload the login IDs for an existing user set (e.g. within a company so they don't need wiki IDs different than those on existing systems), please provide an API for creating users.

This API should be disabled by default. One should have to explicitly enable this to ensure that they have some notion what they are doing.

A whitelist (mandatory?) should be provided so that IPs (or domain names?) can be specified as the only ones that can execute the API call. That allows the wiki admin to run the API without enabling it for the world (of spammers).

This would be easier for many admins than trying to sort through the various function calls and table updates that may be needed to create a user via a PHP script.
