In that case, it seems like the best place to deal with this issue is an install profile with an "admin" role which gets every permissions by default.
OMFG! These are the "little things" that Drupal should be adopting from a usability standpoint. Why assume that only person will be admin? Why assume that #1 is the only one to get to the site while it's offline? I have a friend, John Simon, who is a software artist and he has described coding as creative writing. If it is, I have a whole dissertation to write about Drupal's #1 user. The fact that it remains "god-like" and without a role .... we're slipping into Lacanian territory here. Here's a good interview by John http://www.numeral.com/articles/atkins/decodingdigitalart/ decodingdigitalart.html Here's an example of software art, btw (the patriarchy at home is Mark Napier) http://artport.whitney.org/commissions/codedoc/ OK, back to lurking, liza Liza Sabater, Publisher www.culturekitchen.com www.dailygotham.com
