I would be interesting if the Privileges pages could be used for normal users that have WITH GRANT OPTION.
Sure it would.
The problem is that although those users may change a user's privileges, they are not automatically allowed to view the current privileges. This makes developing a GUI for this purpose really hard.
We could use the conroluser to read the privileges the current user may alter, but this should not be the default behavior of phpMyAdmin.
While revising server_privileges.php3, I thought about splitting it up into server_privileges.php3, db_privileges.php3, tbl_privileges.php3 and libraries/privileges_common.lib.php3. If I did so, I could try to find a way to merge this feature.
