The description "user settings" is a bit misleading.

This module separates management of general account settings (/admin/config/people/accounts) including user information(!) from user management.

It would be great if there was a permission to manage user profile information (name, email, custom fields) only!

Have you looked at the following modules:

http://drupal.org/project/field_permissions

http://drupal.org/project/userprotect

http://drupal.org/project/administerusersbyrole

You might find these do the job. They do for me.
