 I encountered a problem in WordPress 2.7.1 {{{
 $wp_roles->remove_cap('editor', 'manage_links'); }}} doesn't remove that
 capability for the Editor role entirely, but it still displays the page
 "link categories", and you can perform actions on that page. This is
 because that page needs "manage_categories" instead of "manage_links".

 I would propose to either require the manage_links capability for this
 page, or introduce a new capability (something as manage_link_categories
 for example).
