Beyond the memory bloating this could potentially cause and the potentially more complicated security aspects, it's important to optimize for the common case. I've been thinking we might be able to move all user rules into their own priority and then *only* those would be slower and overall performance would be as good as reasonably possible. Also, when there are no user rules, the user rule priority could just be skipped for good performance. In the long run, it might even be possible to give user rules priorities based on the user name (non-numeric ones) so they could be cached. So, are any user rule sets using priorities?
