Comment (by jorbin):

 Replying to [comment:40 guidod]:
 > The usefulness of a better error message is not just for developers,
 it's for end users as well. For example, a suscriber or editor that has a
 permission removed while he is browsing the admin panel would now get
 "Cheating, huh?" instead of something helpful like "You don't have
 permission to access this page, perhaps your permissions have changed?".

 As was pointed out in the second comment of this thread.  "This warning
 should never be accessible via the UI. These are nothing more than sanity
 checks. If they can be accessed in a normal setup via the UI then that is
 a bug."

 > (And about the stuffy corporate application comment, WordPress IS used
 in corporate contexts).

 It is, and we haven't needed to lose the personality of WordPress to do
 so.
