 After a note by @ocean90 (https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/core-
 multisite/p1470482829000310) and a following discussion (see particularly
 https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/core-multisite/p1470579794000339), it
 was cleared that the term "Super Admin" is used inconsistently in Core at
 the moment.

 Given that there is no Multinetwork UI in Core at the moment, all usages
 of the term "Super Admin" should probably be replaced by "Network
 Administrator". The term "super admin" should rather denote the user level
 where a user has control over all networks in an entire setup. While for a
 basic Multisite with one network "super admin" and "network administrator"
 denote a similar user level, the terms are different for a Multinetwork -
 and the way Core works currently, it should probably only use "Network
 Administrator".
