One wonders how Multics would've handled this.  IIRC from my Computer 
Science lessons, the hardware would've really leaned on you, just like the 
classical gorilla.

It seems that as programmers, we are condemned to repeat the mistakes of 
the past, until they rear up and bite us, and sometimes not even then.

Security is not a joke; it's serious.
