[Zope] moving users

I need to move all the users in an acl_users folder at a point in my 
folder structure into the acl_users folder further up, while still 
preserving the users there.
How can I do this?

There doesn't seem to be a way to cut and paste users between folders in 
the ZMI, so I'll have to write a script to do this.

Looking at the userFolder API, I would have to read all the users in the 
source folder with getUsers(), then use userFolderAddUser with all the 
parameters to create the users in the destination folder.
But I would need access to the password in order to create the users, 
which the user object doesn't give me.

Can anyone think of a way to do this?

TIA
