Consider adding Super-user functions
------------------------------------

                 Key: ESME-366
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ESME-366
             Project: Enterprise Social Messaging Environment (ESME)
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Server
    Affects Versions: 1.4
         Environment: Any
            Reporter: Jack Park


I left priority "Major", but that's an interpretation of the need for super-user functions, say, an Admin online page with features, as suggested here.
1- ability to "moderate" messages, particularly if any message becomes a liability to the site's admins.
2- ability to deal with users: boot/ban them (MediaWiki offers this), promote them to different roles
3- (my favorite) create Invitation Lists, say, of emails that are allowed to sign up -- useful for portals which are exposed but not intended for general public access or participation
4- other functions I didn't think of
In my own work, I add a function in boot.scala that creates a default super-user based on credentials specified in the config properties. Perhaps that can be added to ESME as well.
