Make an incredibly stupid change because Warner threatened to do it and

Make an incredibly stupid change because Warner threatened to do it and
continue doing it despite objections by me (the principal author).

Note that this doesn't fix the real problem -- the real problem is generally
bad setup by ignorant users, and education is the right way to fix it.

So while this doesn't actually solve the prolem mentioned in the complaint
(since it's still possible to do it via other methods, although they mostly
involve a bit more complicity), and there are better methods to do this,
nobody was willing or able to provide me with a real world example that
couldn't be worked around using the existing permissions and group
mechanism.  And therefore, security by removing features is the method of
the day.

I only had three applications that used it, in any event.  One of them would
have made debugging easier, but I still haven't finished it, and won't
now, so it doesn't really matter.
