Well, the only real advantage (for me) for a global admin is that I have
one account I use from my server side web scripts to manage all of the
accounts. I can handle the per domain permissions and stuff like that
outside of cyrus and just use the global administrative account as the
backend access for my web scripts.
I actually personally don't care what username I use to get it, but I
don't think it should go missing. It just feels a little confusing and
unclear why things are tied together the way they are.
