Super-User

The term for human users who are given all the power on the system, in some system-management policies.

In traditional systems, all users are a security hole and super-users are a super-security hole.

In TUNES, we have the same concept of beings that have total control on the system, but rather use the word God, because it already exists in non-technical vocabulary, and we dislike unneeded technical jargon, and at the same time it isn't tainted with the same nuance of security hole as the word "super-user".
