Comment(by hakre):

 I think that introduces bugs as it can differ on runtime. You seem to have
 a faible to overload function arguments, but I don't think that this is
 helpful generally.

 Probably the information stored with the menu elements which capabilities
 are needed will be executed for other users as well which would return
 true for them even if they don't have the needed capability. That could be
 somehow dangerous and hard to debug.
