It's not necessarily "advisory" security.  For
example, in order to effectively use file system ACLs,
one would need a loginfo script that would set the
appropriate ACLs.  If the script didn't exist, some
wouldn't get the permissions they needed.  IOW, the
script grants permissions, rather than denies them.
