Package: mysql-admin
Version: 1.0.14-1
Severity: normal

When admining users via mysql-admin it is unclear when there exists a
user [EMAIL PROTECTED] The other default root accounts show [EMAIL PROTECTED]
clearly, and [EMAIL PROTECTED] These users have their own entries
after expanding root.
However for [EMAIL PROTECTED] the details are on the unexpanded root node. The 
only
visual clue you get that the account exists is that the 'Schema Priv'
and 'Resource Limits' tabs are not greyed out.
It would be better if [EMAIL PROTECTED] had it's own entry.


For example, when selecting 'User Administration', in the 'User
Accounts' window pane on the bottom left, instead of this:
+-root
|  |
|  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
|  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
|

It would be better to have this:
+-root
|  |
|  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
|  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
|  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
|


This is almost a minor bug, but my opinion is that the security
ramifications of misunderstanding the accounts for root are serious for
administrators.
