> When introducing roles in CASSANDRA-7653, we retained {{LIST USERS}} support for backwards compatibility. However, the {{super}} column in its results is derived from {{IRoleManager#isSuper}} which only returns the superuser status for the named role and doesn't consider any other roles granted to it. 
> {{LIST USERS}} then incorrectly shows a role which does not directly have superuser status, but which inherits it as not-a-superuser.
