Well, in Portuguese Wikipédia we don't want to spit the adm flag to destroy
it. We are only give the chance to someone who only wants to do a part of
the Administrator work can help the community without have to pass for all
process of be a administrator.

What you propose is create a "protector", a "blocker" and a "Media Wiki
editor" to go with the "Deleters" group and exting the adm flag. That was
never in discussion in pt.wiki
