 WordPress developers have decided that `/wp-admin/options.php` is
 inappropriate to be shown to users and so there are no links to it. You
 can't click on a menu item and stumble across it. The only way to find it
 is to manually type in the URL. This is great because it prevents
 inexperienced users from making potentially disastrous changes, or at the
 very least being a bit confused.

 `/wp-admin/network/site-settings.php` is pretty much the same as `/wp-
 admin/options.php` except it hides options beginning with `_` and munges
 the option names to be slightly more human-readable. As such, I think it
 should be given the same treatment as `/wp-admin/options.php` - hide it
 completely so that nobody stumbles across it.
