On a side note, I think a similar issue also occurs for users. If I delete a 
user with curl, and re-create user with same userid weirdness results. They 
lose all memberships, their privacy settings change to public, but they still 
have some access to content, didn't do full testing, but it certainly makes for 
some strange results..

That's the circumstance I found it in - tried to delete and re-create a world 
with the same name, was surprised to see all my old content still there. Then 
tried it across user accounts and encountered the real security ramifications. 
Can't guarantee it doesn't crop up in other situations, but this is the most 
likely "accidental" scenario.
