'deleterevision' in its function of deleting

suppress the content of the log entry, so you mask it. But I know what
I'm speaking about.
If you wouldn't have 'deleterevision' permission, you would have to
delete and undelete the page without the revision(s) you wanted to
remove. If you have 'deleterevision' permission, you can easily remove
the content (and the comment if needed; and if you want to remove the
editor's name, you can do it too).
Masking log entries is another part and that's why I want to give it an
extra permission called 'suppresslogentry'. You could also name it
'hidelogentry', but I think we should use it because of
'suppressrevision'. This permission's name does also include
'suppress'
in its name even you can only hide log entries and revisions for
administrators too.
Sébastien reply seemed to refer to the other.
I think it's fine to make the separation you propose. Please open a bug
for that if one doesn't already exist.
