The StaffPowers extension applies staff powers, like unblockableness, superhuman strength and general awesomeness to select users.
Users who have the unblockable
user right cannot be blocked by other users.
Additionally, users who belong to the user group specified in $wgStaffPowersStewardGroupName
cannot be blocked, except by users who have the unblockable
user right. This right is assigned to the staff
user group by default.
