Is there any technical reason why more info about each user is not available from the views_user.inc

It would be good to:
* only list users with a status = (blocked/active)
* list all user ids for a site
* enable sorting of data by the last time a user logged in.

This has been adressed many times before so I'll try to save merlin a few secs here.
In short :
This is not possible because users are not nodes, and views is curently about selecting nodes, and the work required to refactor views and have it deal with users as well makes this, at best, postponed to an uncertain future.

Views needs nodes; if each user has a node then it works. With the usernode module you can get this effect.

Let's change this to postponed, at least.

Also adding backlink to http://drupal.org/node/86203, which seems to indicate that someone got this working without nodes?

with the usernode module the mentioned points 1 and 3 are already possible.

As fago says, bio nodeprofile etc. help with this. And no new features in 4.7
