I notice there were some CVS checkins about renaming it to the 'emergency user'. Cool, does this mean you're going to be able to define a manager at install-time?
Yes - the whole lame login-as-superuser-create-a-manager-and-relogin process will be gone in 2.3. At install time you'll create a first manager and just use that.
Yay! As Max asked, any 2.3 timeframe? Python Scripts and no Super User alone make it _very_ enticing :-))
He can un-screw permissions or users if you ever manage to get totally locked out of your site. Think of it as a user mounted in a box on the wall labeled "in case of emergency, break glass".
How does this differ from a normal manager and how would you 'create a super user' as you descriebd in the bit I snipped? cheers, Chris
