You will need to add a plugin which can have users added (e.g., a
ZODBUserManager) and activate it for IUserAdderPlugin.  You also need to
add a role assigner (e.g., ZODBRoleManager) and activate it for
IRoleAssignerPlugin.  Your code can then call '_doAddUser' to add the
user object.

You could submit a collector issue with patch to add the TTW-callable
versions ('userFolderAddUser', 'userFolderEditUser', and
'userFolderDelUsers') if you have a use case for them.
