I do not consider familiarity with a lot of rules for dealing with problem people to be essential to an admins job.
Not sure I comepletely understand this sentence. Admins clearly need to be familiar with rules, but that doesn't mean they have to do all the possible admin tasks. If someone wants to stick with one task, I'm happy to allow them to do that as long as they know the rules for that specific field.
I like the idea of splitting all the powers and grant specific powers depending on what the admin in question wants to do. I do wonder what to do about newbies who are told to contact an administrator about an issue. How are they supposed to know if a certain admin can help them?
