Description
Is it me, or are the permissions missing? Is the access to DB Maintenance secured by some other mechanism?
I know it cannot do any direct harm, but there is always an idiot happy to mess with things he does not understand (eventually with disastrous consequences).
#1
Yes, you need 'administer site configuration' permission to admin the module. In the _menu() hook, see
'access' => user_access('administer site configuration'),Are you asking for there to be a 'administer db maintenance' permission in access controls?
#2
You are right. I try to discourage people from using a shared admin account, so I need to give users proper permissions. It's not a life or death requirement, but it would be oh so nice!

In that case, look for it in 6.x I guess - it's not a big change to the code.
