    It's extremely common now to have authentication driven by LDAP/AD
    
and/or SAML SSO. With this, admins increasingly want to provision users
    
separately instead of just letting a successful authentication create
    
the user account.
    

    This change makes it possible to do a POST to the /api/users/ endpoint
    
without a password set, which will create the user with an unusable
    
password.
