Comment (by peterwilsoncc):

 @manfcarlo Thanks for the suggestion.

 I'm interested to know how this would be an improvement on something like:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 if ( current_user_can( 'permission_one' ) || current_user_can(
 'permission_two' ) {
    do_something();
 }
 }}}

 I worry that including the `OR` relationship in the native
 `WP_Core::has_cap()` check could lead to developer confusion so both a
 strong use case and significant benefit would be needed for such a change.
 Are you able to expand on each?
