The nice thing about special privileges is that they should be as easy to take away as they are to give.
If someone with the status to do what you mentioned does any of them, you can issue a warning or even remove their status right away depending on the level of the violation.
It seems overall that the attitude is pretty positive and helpful around here these days. Not to say that it hasn't always been, but from reading older posts you can see where certain conflicts had arisen.
I know you guys don't need more things to police, but watching a few members with special privileges should be worth the benefit. Considering that those few should relieve some of the pressure for the admins here to answer as many common questions.
Oh and another idea (which I am not sure is even possible) might be to have all edited posts archived with the pre-edit post information. That way, anyone could look up edited code, nasty posts, or even help posts that got edited. I think that would solve the problem completely.
