You seem to know what you want. So why don't you write a spec, maybe design and even mockup screenshots? This is really important.
Inspired by http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Web+UI+Mockups, here's my annotated mock-up screen-shot:

(I think my photostream's been marked as safe, again. Damned Burning Man/Nowhere[1] photos.)
As for a spec, I think the loosely written comments, might explain it, rather than me going through it wholly. That said, I'm more than happy to elaborate/clarify.
I think the idea is:
"I trust these people to admin that feature, so let them only do
that (on this list: although the idea of having *global*
permissions may be useful, in some cases, or indeed, the notion of
grouping lists together (by domain, or site-administratively), and
allowing these permissions for all lists within that group)".
Design isn't my strong point, either ;)
One of the things I really hate about Zope 2 is the complexity of the delegation mechanism (the "security" tab in the ZMI). Let's please avoid that!
I've not used the ZMI for about 3 years.
