In user.module, function user_access contains this comment: User #1 has all privileges.

This is not obvious to people administering a Drupal site, but it should be (it can result in all sorts of confusing behavior related to permissions when logged in as user 1).

Suggested locations for help text additions:

* admin/people/permissions
* admin/people/permissions/roles
* install process, where you are asked to create user 1
