Hi Mike,

the only user accounts you need to have on public instance are those that you 
want to allow direct access to the public instance or those that activate 
content to public instance.
You can further reduce number of accounts needed on public if you use workflow 
for activation in which case, superuser account is the only one needed (plus 
the users you want to grant direct access to).

Another measure to increase security is to allow access to /.magnolia* URI only 
from the IP that belongs to author instance (and possibly from extra few IP 
addresses from which you want to be able to login to AdminCentral).

HTH,
Jan
