In order to accomplish #2, I thought previously investigations yielded
that everyone needed to be added to have +2 (even thought it was
meaningless unless also confirmed by the OWNER plugin).  Has this been
resolved?  Are we going to move everyone to have this?  Or are we going
to have a global "maintainers group" with +2 abilities?
