Comment (by mdawaffe):

 You can do this on a per user basis (which is what it sounds like you want
 anyway).

 {{{
 $bob = new BB_User(2); // 2 is the ID of the pre-existing user

 $bob->set_role( 'member' );  // Make sure bob's role is member
 $bob->add_cap( 'move_topics' ); // Give bob some additional caps
 $bob->add_cap( 'stick_topics' );
 }}}

 You can even give a user multiple roles.  That user will have all of the
 caps in those roles.

 {{{
 $bob->set_role( 'member' );
 $bob->add_role( 'my-custom-role' );
 }}}

 Each of those examples would only need to be done once for each user (not
 every page load).

 Is that enough?
