 Replying to [comment:2 jrf]:
 > Just wondering: as there are four "screen" functions and one "user"
 function and the impact of renaming these functions on userland code is
 large, what is the reason to favour renaming the (four) "screen" functions
 instead of renaming the (one and much less used) "user" function ?

 > `is_super_admin()` could become `is_super_admin_user()`

 Thanks! It did not occur to me, but I think it makes perfect sense to add
 that alias too. Commit incoming :)
