Comment (by boonebgorges):

 hnla - Your second option is much better than the first. There is no good
 reason for this markup to be generated in the PHP. It should be split out
 into a proper loop.

 One of two things will have to be done to make this work.
 1) Add additional parameters to bp_group_has_members() that allow querying
 for different member types. I would suggest a 'type' param, which can take
 'members', 'mods', 'admins', or an array thereof. Corresponding
 adjustments would have to happen down the whole chain (all the way down to
 the query level) in order to make this work.
 2) Use the existing 'include' param on bp_has_members() instead
 {{{
 $admins = groups_get_group_admins( bp_get_group_id() );
 if ( bp_has_members( array( 'include' => $admins ) ) ) :
 //loop
 endif;
 }}}

 I guess I'd say that (2) is the way to go. For one thing, it would keep
 this patch entirely inside of groups/single/admin.php, instead of
 requiring adjustments to the query class. Also, I would eventually like to
 see bp_group_has_members() and its template tags merged into
 bp_has_members(), so I don't want to put a bunch of extra code into making
 it work.

 As for backpat - we'll simply leave the old bp_group_admin_memberlist()
 and bp_group_mod_memberlist() in bp-groups-template.php for now. Custom
 templates that use this tag will continue to work, though we will urge
 theme authors to migrate to the new method.

 hnla, are you up for patching this?
