Not sure that there's a way to display it correctly in
that control applet, but it's nothing to worry about.
That applet apparently wasn't designed to handle the
Power Users group, but it won't cause any loss of
functionality...the users will still be Power Users as
shown by the Computer Management->Local Users and Groups
applet.
