It's complicated, in that access controls are enforced by distinct
entities with potentially very distinct criteria.  Trying to conceive
all possible combination of clients, servers and third-party
authenticators can lead to massive migraines.

"root" does not by default have the same privileges on my equipment as
my "root" does.
