      • The new role is assignable via the usual "Configure users" web flow
      • The new role's name conveys the notion that it grants privileges above and beyond ROLE_ADMIN. "Super admin" and "extra admin" have been tossed around as possible names.

      Being an admin user is not sufficient to enable this very privileged level of access. A new role must be assigned to each user who is allowed to edit the configs from the web.
