that, sysops have no notice they're on a protected page. I don't know if a sysop has ever unwittingly edited a protected page, but it's not hard for me to imagine it happening. Maybe there could be a note at the top for sysops: "This page is protected. If it's been protected because of a controversy, editing it will look unfair to people who are not sysops, and for good reason. Perhaps you should unprotect the page first."
I've wondered about something like this as well. Also, is there a list of protected pages somewhere, or else some DB query we can run to generate such a list? I sometimes wonder if pages have been protected about and then forgotten, left protected forever more.

PS Apologies for my last post - it was just as useless as the post it was a reply to. I shouldn't have sent it.
