While I personally love options. Knowing that my wife WILL accidentally lock herself out when changing things, I think it would be better to eliminate the primary administrator from being limited. She does have her own login with admin rights as do I. I don't want her to have the ability to lock me out as the primary admin user. If she locks herself out it won't be that bad provided she CAN'T lock out the primary account. It's a safety net. I know I'll be here at work late at night, and the phone will ring... Honey! I've locked the computer by accident. No one can login. Tell me how to fix it. If she locked me out, there is no fix until tomorrow. As unlikly as you may think this sounds, it will happen.

My vote goes with Even’s first idea. Primary Administrator can’t be limited.

Just my 2¢
