 In a site I manage, we usually need to create many users. All of the are
 not administrator but when we create it we can commit an error and assign
 them administrator role by mistake.

 It would be great if we had some kind of extra check to avoid this kind of
 mistakes.

 An administrator who creates users can take care but after many users, if
 someone commits an error, it can create a big security problem.
