[Mailman-Users] List adminstration and moderation

Since I'm a new user (Mailman 1.0b9), I'm not sure if the "problem" I'm
describing is actually a feature, but I'll submit it for consideration:

When I first enter mailing list administration:

    http://x/mailman/admin/test

I get a demand for "Administrative Authentication".  That's expected, but if
I immediately click on "Tend to pending administrative requests":

    http://x/mailman/admindb/test

I get a second demand for "Administrative Authentication".  I thought this
might be so that a list manager could specify a different password for
moderation and thus let other people perform that function without giving
them access to everything else, but I can't find the ability to specify that
option.

Is there another reason it is demanding a password a second time?
