Here's a few modules which will allow MyPlaza admins to give users some control over their permissions.
User Based Permissions plus Restriction Removing/Lessening
This module actually serves two purposes:
Currently, this module will be able to modify the following restrictions, on a user level:
When editing a user in the AdminCP, there will be a "Edit User Permissions" link near the top of the page.
Further details, plus downloads can be found here
Buy Into Usergroup
This will allow users to pay a fee so that they can gain entry into a usergroup.
Additionally, admins can specify a timeout for that group (ie, "Be a mod for a day").
Further details, plus downloads can be found here
Buy Into Secondary Usergroup
This is similar to the above module, however, this will cause users to join the group as a secondary group, rather than a primary group.
I think, coupled with the timeout, is very useful for certain situations.
For example, this could be used to allow users to pay to access a forum for 14 days.

Feel free to drop any comments here. I hope people find these useful!
