You are right. This is an overthought with HttpAuth.
I would suggest to setup an Administrators group and add some user (not=20
ADMIN_USER) to this group. This user will have Admin Permissions then,=20
but not the special admin login method, which does not work for http=20
auth (yet).

I usually create this page:
CategoryGroup

* [Administrators]

and this page:
Administrators

* MyAdminUser

CategoryGroup
