Description

« Hide

Moodle 1.6 prevented admins from unassigning the admin role form themself. We should reinstate that feature, it stops a number of screw-ups:

* It means that there is always at least one admin
* It means you cannot hand over admin responsibility to someone else until you have shown them at least how to unassign the admin role from yourself.

Actually, the back end was not letting admins unassign themself, but the UI did not make that clear in any way.

user selection: ~~MDL-16993~~ Convert the assign roles page to use the new components.

At the same time, I took the opportunity to try to work on some of the usability issues on this page. Note that I have not quite finished! So don't comment until tomorrow.

In the course of doing this, I also did: half of

~~MDL-11529~~ Show the number of assignees of each role in the change role dropdown on this page.
~~MDL-17067~~ Make it clear in the UI that admins are not allowed to unassign themselves.
