+This component adds a whole new section with a couple of pages to the trac:WebAdmin section for managing user accounts:
  * admin/accounts/config - basic configuration, i.e. !AuthStore activation and ordering
- * ''admin/accounts/details'' - upcoming
  * admin/accounts/notification - !AccountManager change notification settings
- * admin/accounts/users - user account listing with some management functions, i.e. add/delete accounts, change password, etc.

+  * review account details (since acct_mgr-0.3)

 '''^note1^''' Before acct_mgr-0.3 modules name has been !AccountManagerAdminPage instead.[[BR]]
-'''^note2^''' A more granular set of permissions has been introduced with changeset [9280] and TRAC_ADMIN is not required anymore.
+'''^note2^''' Requires `ACCTMGR_ADMIN` or `TRAC_ADMIN`, but handle with ''extreme care'' anyway - no problem to shoot yourself in the foot by i.e. deleting your own `SessionStore` admin password. So double-check and think twice, and especially have a current, working Trac db backup before starting cleanup here.

+Older versions required the `TRAC_ADMIN` permission to access any of the admin pages, but a more granular set of permissions has been introduced since acct_mgr-0.3 (see changeset [9280]):
+ `ACCTMGR_ADMIN` :: all permissions in the plugin's domain, like `TRAC_ADMIN` for Trac core
+ `ACCTMGR_CONFIG_ADMIN` :: permission to see and use the configuration admin page
+ `ACCTMGR_USER_ADMIN` :: permission to see and use most other admin pages of this plugin except the cleanup (button <Review account attributes>)
