Bug Description

A team's membership list does not distinguish between the "Administrator" role and the owner.

Take a look at:

https://edge.launchpad.net/~launchpad-qa/

Diogo is listed as the owner.

Now see:

https://edge.launchpad.net/~launchpad-qa/+members

Diogo is listed as an "Administrator", alongside other admins.

summary: - Team member listing show "Owner" as "Administrator"
+ Team member listings show "Owner" as "Administrator"

The display is correct. Diogo is implicitly and admin. he has the power to approve new members. Do you want the display to change?

I filed this bug after a Launchpad user asked why he, as an administrator, couldn't make someone else an administrator. He looked in the membership list, which is natural as that's where he was going to find the person he wanted to upgrade, and saw nothing to suggest he was any different from the other admins.

I had to tell him that it's only the owner who can make someone an admin.

So, I think it would be helpful to list the owner as the owner in the members list.
