Okay, thanks for your help. I think I’m getting this.
So,
· A user manager can only see the users who have privileges that are within his list of privileges.
· A user manager can only assign roles (see them listed) that are within his list of priveleges.
· This actually doesn’t have to do with who added the user (as stephocay mentioned), so if a superuser adds a user with sufficiently limited privileges, then the user manager will be able to see that user.
Some odd behavior I noticed:
· A user manager can see users assigned to org units that he is not assigned to.
· If a user manager has the role of ‘editor’ and ‘user manager’ with associated privileges for each he cannot view other users even though he has all their privileges with his 2 roles combined. But if these privileges are combined into one role he can see them.

On the other hand, I perfectly prefer that arrangement that a user manager simply sees the activities of those accounts he created as he has no business looking at views that should be visible from those with higher privileges than him.
@stephocay: what did you mean by ‘ONLY see the people he will add’ – only the list of accounts or only the activities of these accounts?

My Understanding is that the User Manager ONLY sees the people he will add. If this is the case, then I am sure it is Kind of a Bug that needs to be looked at.
