Comment (by dlh):

 Thanks @boonebgorges and @johnbillion.

 As I understand them, your suggestions aren't mutually exclusive. Adding
 the capability check seems like it would be worth considering
 independently of this particular ticket, even.

 Unless one of you or someone else has a preference about it, I can work on
 patches for both approaches.
