For example, I sometimes want to query all Staff that are active on a Wiki, but I have to specify the one-edit parameter or else I get hundreds of results. Could I feasibly still do Special:ListUsers/staff like normal, only without all the locally inactive accounts? Based on Kirkburn's original post, yes. If my understanding is correct, Special:ListUsers used to list all users (local or global) that had made at least 1 edit plus the rest of the global users. Now, they are simply removing the global users that have not made any edits. However, to still make a list of global users available, they are creating Special:ListGlobalUsers.

Nice feature! - An after thought...

Does this mean that the "all users" option in the "Contributed" dropdown will be removed? It seems like it would serve no purpose to keep it around as the page would only list those who have contributed "1 time or more".
