Hey, Dan,

Thanks for pointing this out.  I'm curious:  are these not part of the
default privileges for zones because there are known issues with
violating the fault boundary ceated by zones, or is it just that
nobody has had the time to fully look at the issue?   (I can see
2006/124 but not 2002/174 or 2002/188.  Do you know if the answer is
somewhere else I can see?)  I guess the real question is, would I be
tilting at windmills if I wanted to get this changed?

Chad
