 Replying to [comment:4 joemcgill]:

 The magic is in `func_get_args()`, which allows for variable length arg
 lists. In whatever decade we'll get to be 5.6+, it'll be easier to
 understand that from the function definition instead of having to look
 inside the function. See
 http://php.net/manual/en/functions.arguments.php#functions.variable-arg-
 list

 Meta caps are quite powerful, as they can be controlled at a very granular
 level - note the singular name for the capability instead. I find it quite
 readable - can the current user edit the post with the ID of X. Just don't
 judge the readability of code that filters meta caps. :)
