Comment (by nacin):

 Fairly little to do with security. Rather, returning a raw array of
 capabilities and roles doesn't help when it comes to actually processing
 capability. No filters are run, nor would map_meta_cap() get a chance to
 do its magic. Raw role names could go a long way for basic sanity checks,
 which is why those almost made it in.
