It seems to be an incomplete feature upgrade, as the admin user has always been usable and it was intended to have other users capable of this… but it seems the feature never came to completion after the UI update. I never use the admin account for anything except syncing, so my password there is ridiculous and unique to the firewalls. Web login should be limited to a mostly trusted subnet anyway, and ssh can be locked down to keys only. I wouldn’t go limiting the admin account, I would just set an extraordinary password and use it only for synching.
