This is the "modify self" right, which can be applied on a per group or 
per user basis in the global rights sections respectively.  Remove this 
right, and users won't be able to update RT-at-a-Glance, and probably 
some other items related.

These displays are simply searches that are displayed in the 
at-a-glance.  Click the edit next to the "10 highest..." title.  You can 
edit that search to change what fields are displayed, how they are are 
ordered, etc."   The number 10 simply reflects the at a glance config 
for how many fields to display, and each user can modify that.  Not 
something you need, or want, to modify behind the scenes.

I'm sure there's a way to globally change that number from 10, but have 
not done it myself.   This simply applies to how many search results are 
display on the at a glance, the search itself has a different limit, 
that is again customizable in the search.   chris
