I guess it depends on where it sits on your list of priorities. Knowing the code as you do you'd get it done a whole lot faster than I would but maybe it's not such a high priority for you so if I want it done sooner rather than later I'd better be doing it myself? Is there any room for making some of the functions in security.c generic, or is the layout of the security stuff and the object id stuff too different?
