 If a Super Admin is in the backend of a site they are not a user on, and
 tries to edit their own profile via Network->Users, you receive a `Call to
 a member function has_cap() on a non-object wp-admin/includes/user.php on
 line 80`

 This bug seems to date back in WPMU to at least 2.8.6 in my testing.

 I would expect a Super Admin to be able to edit their profile from
 anywhere, but if that's not the case, and they need to be a user of of the
 site they are in, then some more graceful error message I think would be
 appropriate.
