Yes, it could be interesting. How you can provide means to unhide
properties on the page?

Former one. Because the only persons who will see difference are ROOT
Admins and sitegroup of the object being edited could be
hidden/displayed field depending on user status (Root/others, because
sitegroup admin has the same rights for changing sitegroup as regular
users -- they have no such rights :-))

I think their current location (over title bar) is better.

An area with 'Hosts' label is well suited for 're-logon' link (to
additional page, yes) and notification about user status.

:-) I understood.

Both. It could be an option in User preferences. Sometimes we all need
to have fresh look to the interface and change themes periodically
:-).
