 * Many of my users have capabilities assigned to them that were created by plugins
   that are no longer active on the site. They’re visible when I view many User 
   profiles. Is it possible to sweep them?
 * Also, when I view the details for Term Sweep there are some that I would be happy
   to delete, but there are a few that I’m not sure about. Is it possible to selectively
   sweep only some terms?
