Comment (by swissspidy):

 I can take a look tomorrow Wednesday around the Beta 1 release.

 To answer John's question:

 `who` results in a query against `user_level`, `capability` in one against
 `capabilities`.
 If both are provided, the query will be performed with "AND" relation.

 I don't see any negative effects of keeping both, as the result would be
 the same as when only querying on of that.
