This is not true anymore. You can designate any Role you like to become Administrators of
the CMS including access to the Security Console. You will obviously have to setup your
permissions for this Role accordingly.
The CmsRootUserName in the configuration file serves a completely different purpose. As

Basically if somehow you mess up your security policy and lock all users out or something
like that, you can login with this root user and perform whatever fixes you need to set
everything up properly. This feature will save you many stomach dropping incidents at the
thought of having to dig through the database data to fix setup mistakes ;)
Thanks
