 I recently experienced a problem where I have an administrator role with
 full access and a site administrator role with most access including the
 ability add, edit, and delete users. However, I don't want the Site
 Administrator to be able to delete users of the role Administrator.

 The change I'm proposing is a new permission or marker which states that
 if enabled, this user can't be changed by another user who isn't the same
 role. If possible, I might try to add the patch myself.

 This is a fairly important issue which would is interfering with
 WordPress' use as a content management system, and the only work around
 I've found is to edit core file.
