Originally created by @Lanhild on GitHub (May 9, 2024).
There's been a new super admin role since the
0.1.123version to restrict user actions to other admins.It'd be useful if model downloading/deletion were restricted to the super admin.

After being confused by the 2nd line;
I discussed with another contributor about this, and thought some modifications would be necessary for this new "super admin" role
Below is a transcript of our conversation.

@tjbck here's a link to a table describing the needs/permissions for this "Super Admin" role.
It restricts "Admin" permissions a lot, but it makes sense in the way that the "Super Admin"(s) exists, and mitigates the risk of a bad actor compromising one's WebUI instance.

Anyhow, once we have the role for that, it'll be easier in the future to allow/restrict other features.

Not sure if this is mentioned elsewhere, I did look but couldn't find any mention, for some reason the only way to change the super admin's email is by editing their profile through a normal admin's account? It's funny a super admin doesn't have the priv to edit their own email but a normal admin can edit the super admin's email for them...
