I started using Drupal a few months ago and I must say it is an extremely well coded piece of software.

I'm currently developing Drupaltin, a product to integrate vBulletin and Drupal without hacking any core files. You can find out more if you would like at http://www.theoverclocked.com/Drupaltin

One of the biggest problems I have run into is that Drupal assumes if the userid=1 then the user is the superadmin. There is a similar function in vBulletin, but they allow you to specify the superadmin userid(s) in the config file. It would be wise to adopt this method for Drupal as well.

I know it's best practice to not use the superadmin account for daily use, but the former still applies. Remember, one of the best things about Drupal is the ability to fully customize Drupal to fit your needs. In order to continue in this direction, it is important to allow the administrator specify the superadmin userid.

Interesting idea. This would be best if it were a feature request.
