---------------

      API method for creating a new user object. Note that not all
      user folder implementations support dynamic creation of user
      objects. Implementations that do not support dynamic creation
      of user objects will raise an error for this method.

         Please document the argument types; for example, roles must be a list  
         (e.g., '[Manager]') and not a string.  Zope will accept 'Manager' and  
         create a user, but it's an invalid entry--when you click on it, Zope  
         gives an error. 

         Also, please explain the **kw (keywords) argment.

         use [' '] as parameter for domains and it works. domains is of type tokens.
         somewhere in the code i found out that an empty token equals [' '] and not ['']
