[midPoint] Link User during New User Creation

Yeah, I just did another database, our collaboration application, this one
had almost 15000 records, now I am not sure if when Midpoint also has a lot
of accounts, my testing environment only has about 20 users. Took about 9
minutes, I am pretty sure it is a full recon, I am clicking new task,
selecting the resource and then running it,

Task run last started Monday, 8. Dec 2014 14:53:57  Task run last
finished Monday,

 SUCCESS
 Processed 14283 account(s), got 0 error(s)
