By per post permission, it would extend to any custom post type or limited
to bbPress? Now this is entirely possible for meta capabilities and rather
simply but what about the general capabilities? Say I want to grant a
specific user "reply" in a specific forum, I'd need to modify bbPress
itself in order to pass the forum ID
