When revoking an admin, the `Suspend` button lights up right away, however the ` Admins and moderators can't be deleted.` words don’t go away until a page refresh.
Low priority to be sure but I’d run into it on three forums, so I can only assume others have too.
- Navigate to the admin view of forum admin
- click Revoke admin
- note that the delete buttons at the bottom of the page are missing.
- a refresh of the page is required to be able to finish removing the former admin.

Very low priority indeed. I wonder if the force-refresh hack we do in other places would be enough here (_also, shouldn’t be too hard to do in a pull request_ ;))

Ah, but that I knew enough to make a PR - I would.

I think a force-refresh should be the way to go here.
Are the sessions updated for the affected user right away? Hypothetical situation: Admin is on rampage, I revoke rights and I expect him to be unable to do anything after I clicked the button. If he still can do anything he wants, there’s not much use in revoking his rights, isn’t it?

Yes there are. OP just suggested a UI bug 😉
