Comment:

 Perhaps this ticket could be renamed to something like "Introduce site
 owner concept".. I'll try to explain a bit more.

 Many usability issue could be resolved by introducing a "site owner"
 concept.  The site owner(s) would be responsible for site-wide matters,
 and would not necessarily be limited to administrator (permission set).
 Indeed, site owner may not be a permission set.  (That probably relates to
 the other ticket #10201 but I digress)

 Site owner might not be the only role required.  For example, I'm thinking
 that "technical contact" might be important, too.  To distinguish - site
 owner might run the site in terms of its content, and be interested in
 matters such as email approval, technical contacts would be interested in
 e.g. #14444 and similar.  Internally, it might also be useful on larger
 blogs for members to know who has what areas of responsibility (so
 owners/contact might be visibly indicated.)

 This is somewhat rambly, I apologise. The point I'm trying to get at is
 that there's a much wider issue than confusing moderation emails.


 (In any event, this isn't a defect, it's a enhancement or feature request)
