The noratelimit-account user right does not exist yet, so this request is delayed until a patch introducing this user right is merged into mediawiki-core. #179865 was supposed to introduced this, but has been abandoned since.

... abandoned due to throttle being moved to AuthManager. It's now up to it to support group-based relaxing of limits.
