Issue Summary

I recently did a site where, for each user I registered by hand, I had to go into their user profile and edit some stuff. This was tedious because I had to keep jumping between the List and Add tabs on the user admin page.

Here's a very simple patch that just links the words "Created new user account" over to the user account that was just created.

I'm missing the link on the "notify user of new account" option, so marking code needs work. Gotta catch a ride. ;)

I think this is a good idea.

Actually, I have a better idea; I want to mention the username in the message and use that as the link instead.
