[wp-hackers] User who can only moderate comments

[Aaron Jorbin]

you can take the code from
https://code.google.com/p/wp-user-plugins/source/browse/new-role.php
and modify it for your needs.  Activate it once and then you'll have
the new role and can deactivate it. You'll want to make changes to the
populate_role_1 function
