ePO Account Privileges Necessary?

From my understanding the following are the possible ePO related accounts.

Services - SQL/ePO
Replication - Synch between master <-> dist rep & superagents
Download - used by ePO clients to download data from the repositories

I understand the need for the ePO service account to be a domain administrator as it would be used to install software on the ePO agents but I would rather not have the other accounts have the same privilege unless absolutely necessary.

Is it best to use one domain admin account for all (like McAfee has initally suggested to me)? If only the ePO service account needs the domain admin access what access is necessary for the Repl and Download accts?

Thanks much
