Comment (by 10sexyapples):

 Ah yes Scribu, I should have been more clear in my comment what it was I
 was specifically addressing.

 I was answering directly to any statements or opinions regarding any lack
 of enthusiasm that previously existed toward roles and capabilities and
 their use out there in the devosphere as a whole
 ( to explain ... I'm having issues with the user_level != 0 check in the
 author dropdown metabox ( I believe you know a bit about this ? ;-) ) and
 have been reading for days to troubleshoot this and other issues in
 dealing with all the new user/role/capability stuff and I guess I somehow
 formed the assumption that this lack of interest existed out there.)

 As well as to any opinions geared toward solutions or suggestions posted
 here which fail to take into consideration that Wordpress has come a very
 long way and is the framework of choice for folks like myself building for
 professional organizations, and not just bloggers ...

 ( ie "How many blogs do you know that have a million users? Also most
 users would be subscribers generally so they get what read and that's it."
 )

 Sorry about the confusing comment ...

 Especially considering all that I've been learning lately in regards to
 roles and capabilities, I personally cannot wait for you guys to pull the
 trigger on this overhaul ;-) It seems so very needed.
