Description
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. ;)

There we go.

How about one that's cruft-free?

Hunk #2 succeeded at 1359 with fuzz 2 (offset -4 lines).
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.
#5
Try this on for size...
#6
Looks good. Works as advertised.
#7
I tested the patch and can verify the RTBC.
