almost certainly - I still haven't got a box accessible from here (hence my
floundering early on with the name) that has this set, but that's my memory
of the name.
For the same reason I can only remember (hopefully correctly) that this is
the name used in Manage Users where it is at the bottom of the list with a
separator between it and "normal" users listed there.
