Limiting moderator powers?

Is there a mod that limit global moderator powers? I want to remove the 'remove post and/or topic' features for all moderators, or make a new member group that takes away these functions.

As a VERY dirty fix:

RemoveThread.php, find:
   if (!(in_array($username, $moderators) || $settings[7] == 'Administrator' || $settings[7] == 'Global Moderator'))
      fatal_error("$txt[73]");


Replace:
   if ($settings[7] != 'Administrator')
      fatal_error("$txt[73]");


ModifyMessage.php, find:
   if ($row['ID_MEMBER'] != $ID_MEMBER && $settings[7] != 'Administrator' && $settings[7] != 'Global Moderator' && !in_array($username, $moderators))
      fatal_error($txt[67]);


Replace:
   if ($row['ID_MEMBER'] != $ID_MEMBER && $settings[7] != 'Administrator' && $settings[7] != 'Global Moderator' && !in_array($username, $moderators))
      fatal_error($txt[67]);
  if ($deletepost && $row['ID_MEMBER'] != $ID_MEMBER && $settings[7] != 'Administrator')
     fatal_error($txt[67]);


The buttons will still be there, but they won't work.

User-moderated board. A little experiment I want to run.

Cheers. It works. Would be much appreciated if anyone ever came up with a mod to decide what powers a moderator would have, or allow new user groups to be created, and choose their permissions.

The Global Moderator Center Mod kind of gives you the options as to what they can do, but I don't think deleting/editing posts is one of those options...
