20111,Ability to set permission level for admin settings pages using filters,bananastalktome,,"Removing admin pages from the menu tree is made possible through using either the `$submenu` global or the `remove_submenu_page` function, however preventing users from manually accessing the page is not an easy endeavor (afaik). Rather than hard-coding in the minimum role, would it make better sense to utilize filters to allow developers to change the privilege?

For example, a change on line 13 of `wp-admin/options-discussion.php`:

{{{
- if ( ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) )
+ if ( ! current_user_can( apply_filters('admin_options_discussion_page_privilege', 'manage_options') ) )
}}}

Removing access to this page would then be as easy as `add_filter('admin_options_discussion_page_privilege', create_function('', 'return ""manage_network"";'));` , for example.",feature request,closed,normal,,Administration,,normal,wontfix,,scribu
