 * On my multisite, blog admins are not able to view each other on the user list,
   promote someone to an admin or demote someone from admin. This is standard functionality
   provided in WordPress, what am I missing?

 * It looks like I have to enable the manage_network_users capability which gives
   admins the ability to add and remove admins, but also gives them access to the
   user role editor controls to monkey around and do other things. So for that I
   had to remove this plugin. Seems nice, would’ve been nice to keep it, but you
   can’t please everybody.
