This seems to have fallen through the cracks. It doesn't apply any
more, but one general comment is that it seems undesirable to
repeatedly recapitulate the list of all privileges that exist in the
system. That's a lot of places that someone will have to find and fix
when new privileges are added.

But +1 on the general idea.
