Ahh, I was talking about THIS software (UBB.Classic 6.7.2) in the UBBDev mod forum has a modification for Global Moderators.
As for features of the new product, as Charles stated, if it's in either of the two downloadable products (UBB.Classic or UBB.Threads) it should make it into the new product (so long as it doesn't break cache).
I don't believe that they're focusing on any "new" features for the first release of new product, so if it's not a feature now it'd probably be unlikely to be one.
But as Ian stated, it's in Threads so it should be in new product.
