Hello,

This is more like a bug in editpage. User with "protect" right should be able to edit a protected page. The whole idea of the new user level rights system is to assign to groups some actions that can be made, naming an action "sysop" is not really intended :o)

I will try to fix it later, I am ill today ;(

cheers,
