Summary	0019266: Provide min/max access level for users to show in assign-to list
Description	Often it is not desired for administrators to show up in the assign-to list, hence, it would be useful to have an upper bound on access level that would show in the assign to list. For example, in this bug tracker, there are a couple of the developers that have a developer and an administrator accounts. Hence, there names show up twice in the assign-to list. The default value for the new config should be ADMINISTRATOR by default to keep current behavior by default.

I think it makes sense for us to be listed as developers and not administrators, as the admin account is only used occasionally for specific tasks. So it's a choice between hiding my admin account, or your regular one... unless you're OK with creating a separate admin account for yourself ?
