Appears to be due to:

https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/7bc0fad37ebfcf97d1905a7630fe89a9e846b02e/application/models/Permission.php#L573

superadmin only being checked if assigned directly to user - not if it falls within a role.

I've written a hacky workaround for this but I'll wait and see if there is a proposed solution before submitting a PR

I hate role … i really think it's muts be done in plugin and ONLY in plugin …$

@gabrieljenik : interested ?

Does this only happens with superadmin?
If so, maybe just have superadmin not to be part of roles? After all, not sure if I want that permission to be part of a role.

It's totally related to superadmin

I say a +33 except some user want this … then : must keep the possibility.

@adamzammit maybe ypou can test (and make some proposition about the code)

@DenisChenu I see I am not requested reviewer on Github. Just let me know if you want me to review or Adam. Thanks

Oups …
I think Addam can test (and have a look) but you review.

Sorry
