We have already seen this on IRCNet.
Giving sysops power to ban sysops is going to lead
to a lot of problems.
So could you:
* forbid sysops block other sysops
* don't install it on any Wikipedia but (maybe) English
They're not analogous situations. Banning on IRC means no ability to
participate--a sysop can't easily unban himself. Banning on Wikipedia
means only blocking the ability to edit pages--a sysop can easily unban
himself.
That is, the ability to ban WP sysops is only cosmetic.
