Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing Users documentation and release-notes structure, then inspect the final shipped Users portlet from Add Portlet in Tools. Use the shipped UI to document the list, dialog tabs, Beta opt-in, screenshots, and known limitations such as the Permissions tab iframe; link the docs page from the release notes.
