Special:SpecialPages doesn't list Special:UserRights when it should
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: mike.lifeguard+bugs

Description:
Sysops on Meta may access Special:UserRights, however it isn't listed on Special:SpecialPages (I believe it appears there only for stewards and bureaucrats). Whenever a user can change any rights at all, that page should be listed.

Component may need tweaking

Now prove that you really can access Special:UserRights. ;) I just looked at Meta's Special:ListGroupRights, and there is nothing to imply Meta Sysops give out rights like a metawiki rollback flag.
