Usability wise there should simply be an omnipotent admin status IMO. 
Having to activate all kinds of options while building a site is simple 
counter productive.

On the other hand there is the need to enable some BE user to do tasks 
which require admin status.
So, it would be a good move to extend the options available to BE users 
(preferably BE groups).

For an improved user experience for site builders it would be nice to 
have a few predefined BE groups (roles if you like) in new installations 
(editor, BE user manager, FE user manager, etc.).

I know that this is quite a task, but it will be worth it in the end.

But options to limit the admin user wouldn't make me happy...
