i tried that... adding is superadmin requires far too meny code changes to be worth the extra conviniace of being about to superadmin people from the cp.

but yeah i see this point; i suppose this is why hacks are not officially supported... probably the only solution is to warn users of the problems it can (and will?) cause and to make sure that they check permissions etc after installing/upgrading.

or alternativly... use your own bitfield... however myself i quite like the admin permissions bitfield and have added half a dozen new permissions to it for my warnings system and there will probably be more to come...
