Superprotect is a feature, the way it will be used must be determined by consensus, on a theoretical basis there are different possible good uses. But, anyway, anyone using this feature should be accountable to the community, like anyone holding any advanced rights.

I concur. There are enough admins available to revert bad code additions. Also, this measure is completely without effect.
*Suppose* I were a rogue admin wanting to add some bad code to common.js that disables some WMF feature; I will be reverted by staff and common.js is superprotected.
Oh well, I'll just create a hidden default gadget... Happy hunting!
