Plone – IUser* why don’t you exist?

Jotting this down before I forget. Basically the problem is that when you create a new user you want to do stuff after the user is created. Whether it be, add a bunch of folders, send an email, etc. Regular stuff you'd be able to apply via rules in Plone. Or via the elegant event/subscriber model and hooking it up via zcml.The problem is that this doesn't exist. So there is no IUser* interface which means specifically there is no IUserAddedEvent/IUserCreatedEvent and I NEED YOU RIGHT NOW! I'd add it myself but i'm busy so in the meantime I'll probably end up modifying this.

def afterAdd(self, member, id, password, properties):
'''Called by portal_registration.addMember()
after a member has been added successfully.'''
pass

Which is very bad because it's in CMFCore/RegistrationTool.py; ugh. Soon as I get a chance it'll be in the bug repo. Probably in the next day or so.
