And thanks for the explanation about the code here. I didn't realize it was all tied together either, although it really makes sense to do so. (I know I can't split up some of the mods I've written for my site for the exact same reason.)

I've always just made use of replacement variables for moderators, regular users will never guess them as we use a format like

{@no_permission@} = Sorry the reason you can not do this action is because you do not have the proper permissions, See this thread here with more information.

Works wonders!
