I went into CFAdmin, into the Security section, and user manager.
I added a user apiuser, and when trying to set it for "Allow Administrative Access", I got a pop-up thus:
Sigh, yeah, fair enough. So I dismissed that, also selected "API Access Only", then saved the user and moved back to the Administrator screen as suggested.
On this screen I selected "Separate user name [etc]..." and submitted the changes. And was confronted with this:
Dammit. Not being one to give up immediately, I just changed the radio button again and resubmitted:
It's getting worse! I tried another time and the message was the same.
So I sighed and wondered if it was getting confused because I had already created another user, or something, so went back to the "User Manager", and got this:
And no amount of reattempts to load that page worked. But that, to me, is a bug. Indeed it's twofold: a) simply using the UI should not... well.. break it; b) have you heard of error trapping, Adobe? Blimey. you shouldn't just let errors throw up on the screen: catch 'em and present something less amateur-looking than just a raw error message.

There are screencaps in the article which will help that make more sense.
