There is an RFE about this.

I'd happily accept a patch if someone wanted to help with any of the
many missing gdmsetup features.

You could probably hack something together to do what you want by using
BackgroundProgram, or use one of the gesture listeners to launch a 
command, so you can hit a control sequence to launch it.

This is, of course, ssuming you have a program on your system that
provides a GUI for adding users.  You would probably want it to
authenticate the root password before launching the program, but
there are probably tools (perhaps GtkSu?) that you could use to
script/code this.
