Allow to customize UserViewset like GroupViewset

[NotANormalNerd]

Is your proposal related to a problem?

You are already allowed to customize the GroupViewset by specifing a new GroupViewset in the AppConfig. It would be amazing to have the same for UserViewset to be able to add Custom Columns or other Customizations to the Viewsets.

Allow to provide a Custom UserViewset

Thanks for the suggestion! This has been implemented in #11952 and is awaiting review. When it's merged, it will be available in the next release.

Feedback is welcome, especially around whether we want to deprecate WAGTAIL_USER_EDIT_FORM, WAGTAIL_USER_CREATION_FORM, and WAGTAIL_USER_CUSTOM_FIELDS at the same time or not 🙂

We are currently using all the settings named above. If there is a way to do that easily in UserViewset, I am all for doing that there. Deprecating would therefor be no problem.

Aside from that: Is this also planned for the PageTree? It would be amazing if we could replace the current ViewSet with a customized one. RIght now it is really a lot of monkey patching.
