[keycloak-user] REST API: Create User With Roles

Hi,

Sorry Bill, I think I'm confusing matters here. The AdminClient I'm
referring to is not the keycloak-admin-client.jar but rather a
combination of insights from 
https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/blob/master/examples/demo-template/admin-access-app/src/main/java/org/keycloak/example/AdminClient.java and from the documentation in the user guide.

That means I'm constructing the URLs myself to invoke the operation. I
intend to move to the keycloak-admin-client in the future though.

I can't find the corresponding REST url(s) to invoke to achieve the same
results as you describe in your response below. I think that's what I
need.
Cheers.
