It would be nice if actions like "Give this user Administrator status" or "Give this user Moderator status" would be protected by a javascript popup that asks for confirmation.
In the heat of the moment it happens that you give people powers you definitely don“t want them to have....

An admin on a board I take care of always has that problem. He was always giving people admin access or moderator access by mistake.

This mod:

Seemed to help him alot. He doesn't do it anymore as the links are separated a bit now with this mod.

I kept telling him not to be trigger happy. He would do it while editing them normally, just "mis-fire" his mouse and click the wrong link.

Looks good!
perhaps you want to add this to this mod, this is a piece of javascript that does what I initialy wanted:

Code
  <br /><script language="Javascript"><br /> function Popup(url,text) {<br />          if (!confirm(text)) {<br />		        return;<br />          }<br />          location.href=url;<br /> }<br /></script><br />
Code
<br /><br /><a href="javascript:Popup('/link/you/want/to/doublecheck', 'Are you sure you want to do this?')">text</a><br /><br />
