Are there a lot of folks out there that make use of other fixed server roles
other than sysadmin. ? Never really seen a strong use for ever using themI've seen use of both the securityadmin and processadmin
roles, although rarely. I tend to control all access to
the server as either developer needs (DDL level
security), enduser needs (DML level security) or DBA
needs (sysadmin).
It looks like Yukon is going to include more fine-grained
permission assignment, so I'd imagine this would be an
area to revisit once it is released -- and no, I have no
idea when :)
My 2 cents, hope it helps.

everybody does everything... But in a large company ( I work in an area
where there are some major banks), there may be 30-50 dbas. There is so much
work that each dba is assigned a specific task. They then use the other
server roles to give the minimum permissions...

Where the application is going to be maintained by people who should not
typically have sysadmin access, but need to be able to add logins, you
can grant these people securityadmin, and then also db_securityadmin in
the application's associated database(s).
cheers,
Ross.
