Problem/Motivation
New users registering accounts on a Drupal site can lose the welcome email to their spam filtering software or 3rd party email provider error.
New users can be created/imported into a Drupal system in bulk, and then it would be useful to be able to send a welcome email manually afterwards - #8.
Proposed resolution
Add the ability for users with the requisite permissions to (re)send the welcome email to a user by visiting user/edit/XXX or using batch action in /admin/people.
Only users who can register accounts can (re)send the welcome email - #71
To test: Apply patch and run update.php
Remaining tasks
Review

User interface changes

Screenshots available at #181

Original report by @Chris Johnson
It would be nice if the admin could force a resend of the welcome message from the user edit page.
One case where this would be useful:
Many people are using spam-filtering software these days which make use of white lists, and the Drupal website sending address is not yet known to the user requesting an account.
