Unlike chat moderator, discussion moderator or administrator, content moderator is not a social representative role. I see it as providing a responsible user with tools to help with content management, hence the name. Appending the rights does not identify a 'higher class' of chat/discussion moderator, no more than appending bureaucrat rights does for an administrator. It simply allows more to get done where regular editors are limited. As long as a content moderator knows what not to do with their powers, I do not mind that they possess the rights. Anyone trusted enough to be a discussion moderator should certainly pass in this regard.
