Comment:

 Any plans to revive this topic?

 I support the following:

 1. Issue a Site Health warning when the **New User Default Role** selected
 is **Administrator**.

 2. Add a new settings checkbox titled: {{{Allow New User Default Role:
 Administrator}}} Checkbox to be located next to (or below) the **New User
 Default Role** setting. When the checkbox is checked, the Site Health
 warning disappears.

 Update appreciated. You guys rock!

 Thank you!
