These are the same sort of people who think that bitshrn() is easier
to use than for instance find("R",mystring)... A project I worked on a
while back the guy decided to use all bit-math for the security -- and
I've seen several cases of using bit-math for permission-systems since
then and every one of them has been attrocious. I remember the guy
saying "here I'll show you, it's real simple" and then failing
miserably to explain succinctly how it worked.
