Rob, that's too optimistic. It will *improve* the display of
permissions in the majority of cases. More fine tuning may
be needed but my calls for exhaustive testing have met the same
fate as the calls to test the snapshots.
Two things worry me: domain users and the Windows popup asking
if setup should run as Administrator.
